    Prop questions

    So, I had a 1989 Merc 115 that took a dump on me. My 2 nearest marinas wouldn't work on it. Told me it's not worth the time and effort. I found a 1982 Merc 115 tower of power. The prop on the TOP I think is a 22p prop. The markings are pretty hard to read. I also have 2 perfectly good 17p props from the 1989. I'm wondering if these props will fit on the TOP. I know the pitch will change things. I'd really like to use these props if I can.
    Also, does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do with the 1989? I'm thinking of parting it out, but not sure if there is a market for some of that stuff. Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance

    What to do with the 89 115 depends upon what is wrong. I would look further for a mechanic. Props should fit

    I had the 89 running last spring (fist time for the season). Ran for about 5 min and just stopped. Went to turn the key and nothing. Pulled the plugs and one had metal shavings on it. Could turn the flywheel by hand both ways, but only so far and it would stop.... thinking a bad ring?
