    What Octane?

    I have a 2004 Yamaha 150 TXRC (carbed 2 stroke). In an earlier post there was a mention that 93 octane fuel can actually hurt performance. My question is, What octane fuel do you guys recommend? I've been running 93. Thanks, especially too Big Daddy RODBOLT and yam99. You guys have saved me $1000's.

    prop shaft

    Just replaced prop and noticed I could move prop shaft in and out. Should I be worried? Only moves about 1/16 inch, no metal flakes in lower unit oil, works great. I have a yama 150 TXRC.
