 Squeaking at prop I have a 16 hp go devil lt that I just bought this summer. Never had a chance to do much more than crank it up since I bought it. Finally got it on a boat and was just out getting it running after it hasn't started in a couple months. It's squeaking from the prop. I don't remember it doing that before. Is that normal? I greased it per the manuals instructions before running it. Seems like it lessens or goes away all together at higher rpms.

Re: Squeaking at prop I had the same thing.
The nice folks at GD told me this:
SPRAY WD 40 AT SHAFT AND LOWER SEALS
FLANGE BUSHING MAYBE VIBRATING
Sure enough, that stopped it.
