Hello everyone
I have a 1997 Fisher F17DC with Force 90hp. I want to replace a damaged prop. The numbers on the prop have been distorted and unreadable but as far as I can tell it is a 13" x 21" pitch. I have recieved from Solas (p/n 1411-130-21) a replacement prop which has the hub assy already installed in housing. Here is my problem:
When I removed the damaged prop there was not a thrust washer or spacer. The dealer I bought the prop from says I need these items on the new prop and sold me a hub kit which includes the thrust washer but not the spacer. The replacement prop is identical to damaged prop. Should I disregard the thrust washer and spacer and just install new prop like the old one?
The motor runs great, quiet and smooth. The prop was damaged loading onto the trailer the last time out.
Thank you in advance for any help. Trying to get ready for Saturday.
