if you run a right hand prop on a left hand case you destroy the case.
the L in the pic can ID some cases.
later model cases the L is stamped in the casting under the trim tab.
For the OPs issue (forward/reverse), your best guesstimate?

Are you allowed to pass under bridges at full speed in FL. GA law is idle speed within 100ft of a fixed object or a boat not underway. Not the exact wording of law but the basic intent.

the mokanik was obviously not a trained tech.
could be the control box is backward.
could be the wrong case/prop issue.
that motor pulls the cable for forward gear.Scott

As far as the control box is concerned, the 704 binnacle is mounted correctly and the cable is connected correctly and when the shifter is moved forward, the cable moves the shift slide to the forward position, but the prop turns to the left. I have not located an "L" for left on the LU, but it is definitely a lefty. I can't see any other conclusion.
Now that the Memorial Day holiday is behind us, I will pursue some satisfaction from my so called mechanic.

Pro's, con's if any?

There is no indication at this time that I will have to resort to that, but one never knows. I paid for an operating engine and I will insist on getting one.
Good luck..Scott

Finally heard back from my maniac. He is still on vacation until next week, but couldn't understand why the LU did not have an "L" stamped on it. So he is going to find me a LH prop to exchange for the RH prop he sold me.
Also, He insisted that I bring the boat back to his shop even though the logistics are pretty heavy, so I decided to tackle the stalling on my own and I discovered that the 5 amp fuse was blown on the low pressure pump. I replaced it and it blew also, so I removed the pump and took it to my work bench and found that it was turning, but not pumping.
In that, I have concluded that it was the culprit. I even put 12v to it while it was still on the engine and it would not pump, but I could feel it running.
I think problem solved until the new pump arrives.

Sounds like the impeller (or whatever they use), separated from the electric motor. Now the motor is likely spinning too fast or simply NOT stopping (getting hot) as there's NO fuel pressure build up perhaps?
Cut that pump up and see what's going inside! (just for S&G's, curiosity)Scott
