Default Prop question

I would like to say this forum is very knowledgeable but I cant seem to find anything about this prop issue I'm having. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so if I'm in the wrong spot I'm sorry.
Has anyone ever had there prop spinning when starting the boat out of water? I had it running a few days ago but I took the lower end off to replace the water pump. It was a first time for me working on it but I'm fairly certain I got it back together right but now the prop is spinning when I start the boat...I'm baffled. Any help would be great I appreciate it guys and girls.

Thanks

    Shift cable likely needs a bit of adjustment or possibly an issue with your shift interrupter switch.

    It will be worth your time to read the STICKYS at the top of the Prop Forum.
