i have an evinrude 55 horse 55672e, with a jet.<br />i sharpened the impellor cleaned the rough edges up,i can turn my flywheel forward but not in reverse.<br />there is a slight bit of grinding but i figure it will smooth out with use.<br />i tested it at the boat launch it worked great but the shear pin [brass] came off the shaft.<br />it is a long [1.5"] square shaped pin that lays in the shaft groove,and the impellar slides over it.<br />its a jetco jet not sure year.<br />does this sound like the propper shear pin.<br />and did i maybe put the nut on too tight that goes below impellar.<br />thanks to any who reply.
