I have replaced the motor on a pontoon boat. The motor was run when I got it. I rebuilt each of the carbs and they were very clean. I have check compression and it ranges from 80 to 93. I have checked the timing and it reads 14. It should be at 5 degrees. I do not know have to get it lower. At one point, it was idling very well but it had no top end. I believe that I had done the link and synch wrong. I am using a service manual and seloc online. Can anyone help?

Thanks
