[QUOTE="Ringo Steele, post: 274877, member: 6694"] I don't think it's a problem with the brushes, etc., unless they were not quite right from the factory, as the motor has always been this way. The main reason I decided to change the pitch a little (not much though) it that all the replacement MinnKota props I saw that are spec'ed for this motor has a little more pitch in the outer half of the blades. Mine were practically flat for the last third of the blades. I will post my results after I get a chance to try it out. I hope it's soon, as I haven't had a chance to test out the 1974 Johnson 15 hp I bought recently (other than tank test it). [/QUOTE]
