I'm changing my prop and the key on the shaft came off really quite easily with a pair of pliers and a light pull. I guess I can be happy about that having seen many people have a horrible struggle.
There is a bit of white stuff in the key hole which looks like it could be some old adhesive or grease or maybe just corrosion/salt deposits. Now I've cleaned these up the key can push in quite easily with a firm pres with my fingers. Is that enough to hold it in? Should I be applying anything else in there to either hold it in or help it come out in the future or should it just go in bare?
I'm worried if it's not tight enough it may move slightly in the small gap that is required by my prop manufacturer to be between the prop and the key.
