[QUOTE="MsTurner79, post: 379068, member: 16932"] This is another thing I looked at. Am I right in thinking the part that is just above the prop that is also the water intake should be level with the boat? This is a 15" short shaft motor and the boats transom is supposed to use a short shaft. It appears to be about 1 1/2" above the bottom of the boat. Also I do have it trimed all the way down. I did check the cap on my gas tank and it wasn't screwed all the way down so that might have been something as well. Thanks for all the advise I'm pretty new to the outboard thing.
