Recently the old motor finally died.
I replaced it with a brand new one. After re spooling the cable yesterday I had noticed that the new motor gets warm quick.

That comes as a surprise since the old mother never even got warm.

Any ideas?

Man, you can't post a pic like that and NOT tell us how the vehicle got into the river to begin with.
