Difficult Starting [2001 Johnson Ocean Pro]

She's always been a cold starter but recently it's been ridiculous. Bulb stays semi firm... not like it used too... plugs changed last July... could that be the problem...

If I were to change the plugs myself, can someone tell me the Champion model to use? I sure would appreciate the help.

I've read on here the 77s are an option as well... that they do not fire as hot. Is this also an option? What problems would they cause?
