need M8x1.25 prop nut
i''ve never ran into this, but there is a first for everything right?
i have a new Laser 80 that is perfect with the exception of the prop nut which is a M8x1.25 hardened nut.
it appears to have gone through a boring and threading machine on a slight angle..........in other words it is not square to the shaft and seats on one side when hitting the prop washer.
i am not sure if it will affect anything, but i''d like to replace it.
do any of you know of a place where i can get one?
thx mike

Mike,
All MVVS .61-.91 engines use the 8x1.25 MM size as well.
There is no need to get an *original* part and your neighborhood hardware supply, should have this common metric size; even in the imperial sizes US of A. You would want a grade 6, or 8 nut.

If you do not have a well stocked hardware store, or fastener store, in your area:
You can get one for about $3 from Omni or Tower
