hi all. I have a 1980 200hp johnson ob motor. it has allways run great intill yesterday I launched. started it up and was idling kinda smoking heavy (50:1 mix). then she died. I started her back up and it ran kinda weak for a second and died again. loaded her up and cam back home. when I try to start it, it just cranks, but when I hit the choke it backfirese plugs out the exsaust. the looked soaked. do you thin she fouled all the plugs at once? i have some plugs on order. I was just looking for some opinions, and seeing if anyone else has this problem?
thanks :
