Fouling plugs? Update 9/2/08
Hey guys, long time no talk...
Finally I took the boat out for a shake down cruise and a little water skiing with the kids. For the first few runs the motor ran top shape topping of at 42 MPH on the GPS. After many stops and take offs and lots of idling, the motor started to idle a little rough and ended up losing top speed. I believe I fouled one plug and for a while it ran on 5 pistons only. My hope is that I just fouled one plug due to all the excessive idling, after all, I pre-mix my gas at 40:1 ratio which may be a little to much. When I first got the boat, (Fall of 2006) I did a decarburization using the “Seafoam” method and the motor ran perfectly fine for the entire 2007 season. Have any of you experienced problems similar to these, pre-mixing at 40:1 ratio? Thanks Joe
