First off, I wanna say this is a great website and have learned lots from reading all the posts.
Now the problem. I had my ski out over the weekend and it ran great all day Sat. and half of Sun. After lunch I took the ski out, raced around the lake w/ a buddy and it ran great. We stopped in the middle of the lake to chat a little. Once we were done, I started it and took off and it started fine. I got about 30 feet and it started to bog down (acted almost like a fouled plug) and then just died. Went to restart it and nothing happened. You can hear the starting motor engage and that is it. Towed it back to shore, pulled the plugs and the same thing. Tried to move the piston and couldn't (didn't wanna put to much force on it though). It seems like they are right at the top and bottom so not sure if that would make it difficult to move. Not sure where to start looking for the problem, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for all the great advice and any help in advance.
Have a great day.
