Re: Help!!!!

Welcome to iboats c24.

But here is a suggestion for you.

Scroll to the bottom of this page, click on "forum jump" drop down menu, and select the "Johnson Evinrude outboard troubles forum".

Posting your question in that forum will get you answers from the experts.

I'm sure one of the guys will have an answer for you.

Re: Help!!!!

you have either a spun prop, or a broken drive (shear) pin. it is a metal rod that goes thru the prop and prop shaft connecting them. usually broken when the prop hit something, or the motor is shifted in to gear and high revs. remove the prop, and see if the pin is broken.
