Running a tempest on an hpdi 250

[Mikekelly]

I have a 08 250 hpdi. Currently working on get boat proped right went to put a tempest plus on and it wants to hit the grease zero in the lower unit housing for the prop shift does anyone have a cure for this other than taking the zero out and putting a bolt in to plug it

[JJohnSind]

Never had an issue. Are you sure you have the right thrust washer? Or sure the washer isn’t worn?

Sounds like you are using the thrust washer for a Merc motor... Using a forward bushing helps too.

You need a 835271Q2 hub kit.

I heard that also. I just got a scorpion to try out. Both 15 1/8 in size. Bigger ears, raise it up.
