    Help for Tab Washer ?

    I would like a little help on a part # or size for the tab washer.
    The boat is not near me at the moment but this is the info I have.

    It is a:
    2015 Mercury 75 HP 4 stroke
    Model #1F754131D
    Serial #2B152339

    I don't know make of prop that came with boat, but I have these from when new...

    Does it hurt to run it if one or both tabs are no longer there? I assume it's not going to unscrew the nut but just wondering.

    Thanks for any help

    The tabs keep the prop nut from unscrewing in reverse. If the tabs are actually missing, might be time for a new hub.

    You just need a new washer...any Merc dealer should have them in stock (sorry I don't know the p/n). The prop in your picture is a Mercury Black Max 13 1/4 x 17.

    The tabs are broke off from bending them too many times when removing the prop to change the gear lube every year.
