Engine Shaft and Gear problem
Bear with me as I might be using improper terms.
Here's the problem I have.
There isn't a good contact between the shaft and the screw thing in the gear so the gear tends to come loose very easily.
How do I fix that???

Yes it's tighten all the way. This actually happened a couple of times already. Even when I re-tighten it, the screw is still pretty tighten so I have no clue why it's still slipping.

Grind a small flat spot on the shaft with a dremel tool and cutt off wheel. Then apply blue locktite to the set screw. Allow it to dry overnight. It then should be fine.
