I am new to the thread but not to boating. I have a 2004 Ebbtide 190 campione with the 4.3 v6 (carburated). This last sunday was my first time out on the lake this summer. When I first started out I had absolutly no power. Then, as I was driving I realized "spark plug wires" I stopped the boat look to see if a wire had come off. Sure enough, one had fallen off. I secured it back on the plug, and checked the rest. Started the boat back up, reached 42mph WOT with trim up. Last year I would get about 52-53mph WOT. I plan on changing all the plugs, rotor cap and bug along with a little seafoam in the carb. What else can I do to get it back up to speed? What could be wrong with it? I dont know what the RPM's were either, I forgot to write it down. Any suggestions?
Let me rewind here a second. Two years ago, when the lake was low I hit some rocks going around 5mph. Chewed up the prop, and took a little piece out of the skeg. Filed down the skeg and replaced the prop, the rubber insert looked fine.
