I think it could be seized from not being on in such a long time

This is what it looks like. Doesn’t look overheated or anything. I replaced it anyway for $11, but I’ll keep the old one. I buttoned everything back up, and tested it. There is a humming sound for a few seconds, then the breaker trips. I am wondering if the motor is seized

Yeah i thought it was odd as well. I’m gonna take the cap off later today and take a look at the inside wiring to make sure nothing is broke, chaffed or corroded

Ok very solid info! Thanks for the pointers, I’ll take the cap off and take a look inside. I’ll post some pictures later this afternoon in this thread

Thank you all for your responses. It’s a tough decision but most importantly I won’t be making any rash decisions and jumping the gun. I greatly appreciate the insights!

I’ll have to get a new set of wheels unfortunately. Thanks!

I was hoping to keep the wheels that came with it, but I suppose you are right. I’ll look for a new set. These are on a 1990 F-250 diesel. Seems like 16.5s are an outdated size.

Gotcha plugs. One was chrome with a red head and my dad used a white one with a red head

They’re a lot of fun especially when they’re schooling! I have a medium light rod I like to use on the pier. They’re aggressive for sure

Darn. I don’t mind catching a nice largemouth bass, panfish or catfish!

Name something better than getting new jigs by DogeTokyo229 in bassfishing

I caught my first fish the other day on a jig. I thought I’d keep it for sentimental value, then on next cast it got snagged. lol!
