I have an old Johnson 6 horsepower that I use on my John Boat. Until recently it ran so smooth a person could not even hear it idle but while I was returning from a lenghty trip up Choccolocco Creek the motor developed a (for lack of a better description) severe miss. I thought it was just a spark plug (it has 2 ) but after replacing both the engine still runs VERY rough. I also replaced the fuel.

Any thoughts??
