You sure on the year? The best i can find is Chrysler only made the 70 hp motor for the years 1979 and 1980.

Have it fixed. They will tell you what it is and then you can find another on eBay in that size for a spare.

I have most often seen a Chrysler 75 but have heard of the 70 HP engine. If it is the three cylinder Chrysler, it uses an 18 spline, pin drive, 13 inch diameter prop. These props are getting difficult to find and are no longer made new. You need to search ebay --Force and Chrysler propellers. Sometimes there are one or two listed. You may be limited as far as pitch and really, that depends upon the size hull the engine is mounted on. However, these props usually came from around 15 to 21 pitch and also came in three blade versions with the occasional two blade to be found.

If you can not find one on ebay, try Franzmarine@aol.com. Franz is an old Chrysler dealer and usually can supply parts but be aware that he charges premium money for parts.

I think they made one when I bought my 1971 85 triple. It too was a triple and the 4 banger that year was 105
