[QUOTE="ben2go, post: 44515, member: 751"] I can't get the prop of my trolling motor.It seems to be stuck solid.The shaft is rusty.I removed the center nut and tried to work the prop off but no luck.I soaked it in penatrating oil and tried.Still no luck.I'm letting it sit over night.Anyone got any ideas?This is my first repair job.The motor was left on the boat and the boat was left sitting half in and half out of a pond.Of course the motor was pulled up but rain happens.The rear of the boat sank and the whole unit was under water for years.It doesn't look to bad and the chrome shaft has very little rust on it.The control box is corroded pretty bad on the outside.Inside is ok.Motor turns freely by hand but only buzzes with power.I think the brushes are bad.
