Re: Motor will not drive prop
Welcome to iboats!
Before you go dropping the lower unit, have a look at the prop. You've probably spun your prop. The prop has a rubber inner hub that is designed to spin when you hit an obstruction, protecting the gear train. Remove prop, mark position of inner and outer hub with wax pencil. Remount prop and try running motor on lake again. Remove prop and look to see that your previous mark has not moved. If the marks don't line up, you've spun the prop. Most dealers will send your prop out for repair to have it re-hubed.
