help! motor ran great after long period of inop- ran @ 1/2 hour on lake then shut down ok. went to restart and wouldnt restart- finally w/ starting fluid got it to fire but ran like it was on one cylinder- loud knocking noises from engine. what could have happened? what should i start checking for? could the bravo2 drive cause any noise like that? oil in engine ok.- thanks all....

I would check for compression in your cylinders for starters. Any water in there?
