I have a 30ft cornado with a palmer 60 runs well.I switched to a Indigo three blade prop it dose cause the engine to run at a little higher rpm but its almost like its pulling a load.Any ideas? |

Is you forward gear slipping when you rev up the engine? |

That sounds normal. I was thinking more along the lines the prop is overloading the engine and the clutch is slipping. |

There is no slipping.It just seems like a load but I havent realy run the rpms much above 1500-1600. |
