'79 Johnson Seahorse 115 20" Outboard<br /><br />Had a slipping problem 2 weeks ago. Turned out to be the prop hub. Got a re-hub. Go to drop it in this week and the outboard is not pulling at all.
Figured I had a bad re-hub job. Changed the prop to the spare and nothing. This is true for forward and reverse. Pull off the hood to make sure the linkage is intact and it is. I hear the gears engage as normal and have my buddy walk back to take a look. The prop is spinning incredibly slow. Pull it out and run it on land. With the gears engaged, I can rotate the prop with my hand easily, but not free. The hub is not spinning as the marks I put on there are still lined up. <br /><br />I'm wondering if there is anything I should check before I start disassembling the gearcase? What does this problem sound like? Thanks all.
