Re: Outboard Motor Issues "Now What"?

On a couple other message boards, a broken shear pin was suggested, and I tried to see if the prop would spin freely, which it did not. Now I'm lost again.
OK, so I jumped in the water, and put it in gear, and it did not spin freely. it went about 1/2 turn each way very freely, and after that it gave some tension but was still easy to rotate, but definitely didn't spin. Now what? I took it out of the water and I'm going to mount it in a trash can and see what I can see.
