1983 Evinrude 25hp full spark advance setting help

[thull]

Can someone tell me the timing degrees for the full spark advance setting for an Evinrude Model #E25RCTE? Also, is plug gap 0.030? What plugs? Is 50:1 the right fuel mix? Thanks!

I was able to get this info from the service manual on the Norway website (boatinfo). In case anyone else has this question, the timing degree setting at WOT (4500rpm) is 30 degrees. The plugs are L7734 (now L77JC4). The manual says gap at 0.040 but other online references say 0.030. The fuel mix is 50:1.

When setting the timing, how do I know when I have the throttle at 4500rpm's? I'm using Joe Reeves method of setting timing off the water.

Disregard the rpm question. I see now how this method doesn't rely on the engine actually spinning at wot speed.
