I have a 1975 model 500 50 horse, and when i pesh the throttle forward the motor revs, the prop spins and I still get no go? what's the deal<br /><br />------------------<br />Thanks,
I have 15' challenger 1983. I just bought it about a week ago and it has been nothing but headaches. there seems to be a little water in the lower unit oil, but very little. I had the throttle apart because my "gas" cable was slipping. I went back together nicely. So I think that it went back together nicely. <br /><br />------------------<br />Thanks,
I took the prop off to look at the splines. They looked good. When I was putting the nut back on I was holding the prop in one hand and tightening the nut in the other. The prop was turning when the shaft wasn't and vice-versa<br /><br />------------------<br />Thanks,
Thanks guys I took the prop in to the boat shop. It was the prop hub shock absorber. It was trashed. I'm out of commission for a week while it is being fixed, but at least we figured out what is wrong.
