Hey guys, I'm writing this to admit I was not thinking. After trading for a 96 spectrum boat with 40 hp Force , I felt I made good choice ...! Not !!!!!. After changing water pump, rebuild carb, rebuild fuel pump , boat still won't plane. Removed panels dug out all of the "shipping foam" from sides and floor repkace same ... still won't plane. Yesterday, August 21 had a brain fart.been a mechanic for 40 plus years , and maybe figured out problem. Pulled each plug wire after starting engine ... Yep ...it happened. Engine died ..restarted pulled 2 nd wire no change ???? Yep you guessed it 2 nd plug was bad. Planning on either this evening or tomorrow morning to lake . Guys go bach to basic thinking ...it works . I write this because even Veteran mechanics make mistakes . Hope this helps someone save a headache and possibly not spending a lot of money. Good luch , safe boating , Daddycat
