Spark Plugs

[JawsZZ]

Hello, new to the forum. Just bought A Mako with A 2000 Johnson 200, been setting A couple of years. Fired it up for the first time yesterday, ran A little rough but got better. Pulled the plugs, had the bad gas odor and A little wet. It has Champion plugs in it, which I'm not A fan of. Do they come from the factory with Champion plugs is my first question, and would I be doing any harm if I put NGK plugs in it? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I've been an Automotive mechanic for 35 years, every problem I've ever had with plugs has been with Champion , so you see my concern. Thanks again.
