Hi, I hope someone can help me. I have a 1979 Chrysler 30hp and it starts and runs fine but when I put in forward and throttle up lower unit will start to free spin at about 6mph. The shear pin is fine and prop is not bent. I haven't hit any thing and it was working fine last time out. Any ideas? ... Thanks Dave

The prop probably has a spun hub. Take it off and mark a line across the prop and hub and run it. If the line moved you spun hub.
