I rebuilt the 4.3 GS (volvo Penta, 1996), 4 barrel carburetor.
It won't start and I'm suspecting timing. I put timing light on #1 plug and moved dist and set at several spots between +10 and -10 degrees, still no start. I am looking at timing while cranking starter. Is there a better way to set initial timing? Am I missing something that should be jumpered when looking as timing. I don't think this has an ECM controllinbg timing. Distributor only has 2 wires going to it (other than coil and plug wires.) Where are ECM's mounted in boats? and what do they look like? 18ft glastron 1996.
