Missing at slow speed

The only reason I am embarrashing myself like this is as a courtesy to those who replied and tried to help.

It's not a mistake, it's a learning experience. It ranks right up there with leaving the drain plug out of the boat and then launching it. Point being that you'll always remember to check the wires now when you change the plugs. You get an attaboy for this one for solving it.

Been there and done exactly that.....barely made it in one day....hooked it up at home and stood there going WTF..... click click and I was good to go....

Spareparts gave me the good fix to use some small black wire ties to cinch them down as mine would come loose periodically with just normal running.
