    1973 /25 hp johnson prop

    Hi guys, this is my first time on here. I love the site! I would like to know if my 1973/ 25 hp Johnson prop is supposed to turn half a round with engine off and in gear. Seems like a whole lot of movement there. Or is it supposed to be that much. Maybe some wear in the gears . Runs great.
