Thanks for timing info. Just want to see if “mechanics” messed with timing. When I advanced timing lever (counter clock) idle got better but I ran out of threads. Also do you know normal turns out for carb idle air adjust screws?
All cyl 110 to 120 psi. VRO operates well. Old engine but very low hours and well taken care of. We don't have many boat engine mechanics here. I have some 2 stroke motor bike experience and a little boat motor experience.
I have cleaned all carbs. New plugs. Adjusted idle screws from 4.5 turns out to 7 turns out and everything in between. Ran with auxillery fuel supply. Still not right.
It won't idle properly. Spits misses. Over half throttle good. It has been to 2 supposidly good shops. They messed it up. Adjustment tip was off idle lever. lever is adjusted all the way out and I would like to try Joe Reeves method of WOT timing check. Can't find WOT timing degree. Thanks
