Hey all!
I was on the lake yesterday blasting down the way when my rpms shot up with a complete loss of power. This continued for about 10 minutes until giving it throttle done nothing at all. So i tried reverse and it did the same thing. Today i started messing with it and put it in gear. I spun the prop and it spun freely in both directions. Took off the prop and there is
melted plastic between the prop and im guessing the hub. Pretty easy...i need a new prop it seems.
I started looking up props for the boat and they are few and in between. The ebay folks that do have then want $100 and they have 10 in stock.
What id like to know is if any other props from other engines will fit my engine? Are there any aftermarket props like for speed or something? Is the red hub in the center of the prop replaceable? It feels like it is removable, i can easily move it an inch in and out. Im looking for options if there even is any.
prop specs: 6 477265 - 1 8x9 1/4 r.h.
thanks
