Default Newbie Q - old Johnson 40 problem

Reverse works. Forward works too, except when I increase the throttle. I
pulled the prop off and it is not splined. It has a pin that holds the prop
in position on the smooth shaft. There is no rubber hub, but there is what
looks like a bronze one. I don't think there is any way for the prop to
slip on the shaft, being that is held on by a steel pin through the whole
thing. Is there a shaft coupler that could possibly be broken?

Thanks.

It's possible the shift linkage is not fully engaging when you shift into
forward gear. Does your reverse work ok? If reverse works and forward

does
not, it's the linkage. If both don't work, it could be the rubber spline

on
the prop or still possibly linkage but less likely.
