Adam F Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Behind the bolt that holds the prop on the spline is a winged washer that bends in against the flats of the nut and locks it in position. The current one has perished and my spares are all used up - where can I get some replacements and what are they called - closer to home (ringwood) the better.

Afishionado Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 winged washer A 'tab' washer Often universal, take what remains of your old one to Propeller Developments at Cobbs (round the back to the left of the entrance) I am certain they will find a match for you.

Adam F Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) Will I find these at chandlers, or do I need a proper prop place? It is just such a hastle to drive all the way down to Poole for a poxy little washer! Is there any DIY short term solutions?

great white Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 I do not think you could DIY a new one They are obtained from engine dealers not usually chandlers I suggest phone around the local ones and spread the net untill you find one If I can help call my mobile and give me engine details I will nip down the lane to select or yellow Penguin for you Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
