Jumped on my ski yesterday for the first time since September. Started right up and sounded normal. Idled out of the marina to the ICW and when I throttled up, no power. Idled back. Pulled the seat and ran it at the dock, and there is a definite knocking or tapping in the engine. I pulled all the plugs (which were changed last Aug) and they all looked good. Oil is also good level and looks good. I have a good basic knowledge of engines but that's about it. When I get it home I'll do a compression test as a next step but I was hoping for some other ideas about what to check for/possible cause...sticking valve?? Thanks for any advice.
