Post Prop engage question?
Started my PRO-DRIVE this morning and soon as the motor started running my prop started turning with the PTO switch in off position. I'm thinking this just means my PTO switch is going out because after playing with it a Lil bit it started working right. What are thoughts on this issue. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Sounds like you just had some rust on your clutch plates causing it to grab in neutral. Just cycle it a couple times and you should be fine.

That's a very good possibility because after I cycled it a few times it started acting right.
