Prop play
 

Hey All.
Hope this finds every one great
Question...after changing my three blade Enertia prop to my four blade Revolution prop and securly tightening the nut down, Iwas able ro move the prop shaft back and forth about an 1/8 of inch. Is this Normal? I then changed it back to my three blade prop to see if the same thing happens and it does. I had never noticed this before but that does not mean it never did it before. I then removed the prop and i was able to move the shaft back and forth.
is this shaft supposed to move for a purpose ? Remember it is only about 1/16 of lnch.
Thanks

Mine does the same thing. My old Gayliner (bayliner haha) did the same thing also. I think its common.
