 PD Prop Nut
I have a brand new pd 36 hp noticed twice now that the prop nut has got loose. Has anybody else had this trouble, I think I am going to back it off and loctite it. See if that will take care of it.

 Re: PD Prop Nut
Your prop nut is not getting loose. The prop is tightening down more when you are hitting stuff. The prop is threaded, and everytime you hit something it gets a little tighter. Just take a crescent wrench and tighten the nut up to the prop.

 Re: PD Prop Nut
