Good afternoon i-boats,
I may be in a pickle. Firts off reasons for pickle is I have relatives coming into town tomorrow from about 200 miles away to ride on the Suwannee river.
So I decided to change plugs and do a couple of things to the motor just to be sure all was ok.
I changed the plugs and while I was at it I sprayed some sea foal into the cylinders figuring to clean them out so as to get the enginne running extra good. Did this put the new plugs in started and it smoked like the dickens (as it is supposed to) Smoke clears I let it idle for a few minutes then reved the engine just to be sure all carbon ect was out.
Now heres the issue. It idles perfectly smooth just like it always has, but when I rev it up it kinda caughs and spits a little bit, not normal. ALl else seems fine but this caugh cannot be good.
I do not know it it will level out in the water under power or if this is going to ruin the boat trip.
Please help the boat shop is closed today and I really do not want to dissappoint the relatives. Thanks in advance
