tomO Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I have an older trolling motor that was given too me. the propeller shaft is frozen so I took it apart and water had gotten into it and rusted. Can you lube the electric motor up too free it up or is it toast? thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomO Posted July 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Well I torn it apart and sprayed down good with electrical contact cleaner. then sprayed it with wd 40 let it sit for a couple of hours then started working it. It got to turning fairly easy so I put it back together hooked it up and it took off like new. So i'll see what happens when I try it out on the boat. thx.
