[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 321637, member: 7376"] Been there, done that!!! And embarassing. Took the GF out to the river a while back (cold 50° shallow river) and we were running up stream about 3/4 throttle (20 mph maybe). I've always taken pride in my rig...never had any problems. We were running fine and all at once it died. She was sitting on the front deck facing me. As it died immediately she came out of the boat and into the drink. About 3 feet deep at most so she just stood up. But it was COLD. Air temp in the 80's water temp in the high 40's low 50's. Started it back up and it would idle but wouldn't rev. Took the cowl off and put my hand over the intake and it'd rev then...figured the jet was plugged. Got it back home pulled carb and found a DOG TICK in the main jet. Just like yours, how on earth did it get in there? GF did not believe me. [/QUOTE]
