Hey guys. I am completely stumped here. I have been working on my 2000 Mercury 200hp outboard, carbed model. I replaced the trigger, and now I cannot get the timing set! I am trying to set it to the cranking specs, but It will only go from 0 to maybe 10 BTDC and no further. What in the heck could be causing this issue? It doesn't a separate idle stabilizer that can be disconnected. All plugs are out and grounded. Light is hooked to the # 1 plug. no matter how far I move throttle arm and adjust max screw, it can't get it to advance past 10 BTDC.
I am really stumped and running out of ideas. Any and all ideas or things to try would be greatly appreciated, as I really wanna be on the water instead of in my driveway on the boat! Thanks as always!
