Motor in signature. I completed the link n sync procedure according to my OMC manual. I see that the distributor reaches full advance when the throttle plate is about half way open or so. When the throttle is advanced to fully open and the throttle arm hits its stop at the carb, the distributor cannot advance any further and the movement in the carb-to-distributor linkage assembly is taken up by the spring. Is this a correct set up? Should the distributor reach full advance before the throttle plates open fully? Can anybody verify that the system works this way?

Normally outboards reach full spark advance before carbs are fully opened.
