Engine not engaging properly!

[kitejoce]

super air nautique 2001 21" make knocking sound when engaged. I have to run at idle speed cause I'm sure something will break. I reved up the engine in neutral and the engine runs fine, not problem with it. What would be the cause? The V-Drive or the transmission? The oil level in the V-drive is fine. Have not checked the transmission oil yet. Thought I might ask if anyone had any directions to direct me straight to the problem.
Engine PCM GT-40
V-drive walter rv-26D

So the boat is out for the season on the trailer. Yesterday I turned the engine on with water supply. Engaged the transmission to get the problem on video. The engine and transmission and V-Drive works fine. Thanks for the help.

Always happens. Maybe post the symptoms on CCFan and see what they might suggest.
