    Force prop nut????

    I have a 94 40 hp force. I made the first mistake of letting someone use my boat and now it has no prop nut. :mad: Now I am in search of a new prop nut and am having a hard time finding one. Also I cant get the prop pin out to remove the prop. It hits the prop. Im guessing I need to heat up...

    Idle/gear change problem

    Went out for a quick little ride tonight. Put the boat in and had to give it a little throttle to start it. It never really idled down but didn?t think anything of it.

    Re-Build?

    I have a 1996 40 hp force. I just got the great news that a ring broke and scored the wall of my bottom cylinder. So I guess I am going to get it bored and try to re build it. They said it looks like it needs to be bored 20 over, not sure though. So my question is how hard is it to re build...

    Shallow water drive?

    I have a 1996 40 hp that does not have a shallow water drive kit on it. This motor is on a duck boat and I need to get into the shallows. So is there anywhere that sells this kit?
