I noticed one engine wouldnt get up the same rpm as the other one last time out. Boat has been out 4x this year and seemed fine prior . I noticed more soot on the transom than usual when i pulled it out of the water. When starting it in the driveway, it sounded rough, and I noticed white smoke coming from the cooling pee holes as well as exhaust of port engine. Checked spark plugs, and the very first one (closest to the bow/front of engine) is missing the center electrode/ceramic around it and must have broken off somewhere in the cylinder. All others fine. Replaced with another plug, and still running rough. Ran on hose for a few minutes and still rough and smoking. Checked plug again and it seems fine, but a little wet. My friend who is a mechanic, and has been on my boat many times, thinks its a stuck injector that caused it and recommends replacing and starting with that... $150 for new one and im not 100% sure thats my issue. YDS test says operating normal. Can hear clicking during test and while motor running. He says if its stuck open during load, these stationary tests could still show fine. Ive searched here and found some info regarding stuck injectors and ecu problems being common? Not sure which I may be experiencing. Ive had the boat for 10+ years problem free with new spark plugs every year... Looking for your thoughts and assistance.
Thanks in advance as always...
