[QUOTE="dhoganjr, post: 399588, member: 12925"] Looking at the center exhaust tube in the pic, it is round and on the top and bottom there is the fins (looks like a straight line coming off the tube). You should be able to bend them either way for about a 1/2". You bend them both toward the same side and that will push the the motor the opposite way as water is forced out. Bend them a little at a time till it gets better, shouldn't take a lot. That is what they are there for, to counteract torque steer. Those grates should clean up good, take them out and hammer them flat on a flat surface. Take a file or grinder and smooth out any burs or gouges, especially along the edges. Sharpen and shim the impeller and you should be good to go. [/QUOTE]
