Just because it popped out a freeze plug doesn't mean they all need to get replaced, it may have just been doing its job. What condition is the frezze plug in that popped out?

First thing that came to my mind was a dirty carb. Check the timing, 34 - 36 total. If those are good I'd look for an air leak, spray something around the intake and carb.

sorry; let me rephrase that, a hole popped through the center of the freeze plug. Previously, it happened to the original owner but on the opposite side of the motor. Might as well replace all the plugs at the same time to avoid ruining my next boat trip.

Make sure you use brass freeze plugs ment for a boat.

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."
