Rough Starting Yamaha 60hp 4 stroke?

[idratherbefishing]

i have a 2002 yamaha 4 stroke that has trouble starting right away. Once i get it going it runs fine, but i have to get it to pop and then give it some throttle to keep it running right away. should i change the plugs? thanks for the advice in advance.

sounds like plugs,pull the plugs if they are burning good they will look tan in color if they are black and wet looking they should be changed.Also add some sea foam to the gas

thanks, i kinda figured that, but i'm not much of a mechanic, or fisherman at that!
