    AT cranking speed in neutral the timing for #1 will be very close to TDC (6 to 7 degrees BTDC) AT cranking speed in W.O.T. the timing light should flash (#1 cylinder) at 28 degrees BTDC Is the trigger-assembly even hooked-up to the timing-tower??

    I inspected the helm (rotary steering) / cable / swivel-mechanism of the outboard are all lubed & moving freely. At high speed/Full throttle (with the trim set at its max) its a two hand & really leaning on the wheel (either way) to make a turn. Would installing hydrofoils fins reduce the...

What you can do (if so desired.........) warm up the nylon & press with a flat screw driver into the...

    "The tdc mark stays relatively close to the main timing marker" you'll have to explain what you mean with this because the TDC is not a timing mark The Stator does not control the timing, it creates voltage to charge up the pack. The trigger is what controls the timing, have you checked the...

    The covers are more a sound deflector & when tilting the engine; it's normal that gas leaks out of the throat of the carbs

Disconnecting at the...

    1990 Trophy twin Force 120s prop question

    I just swapped out my (3blade) 17P with a 21P and got my over revving lowered but can still do 6200RPM. I have also a 23P that I want to try however I do a lot of tubing wakeboarding so it may not work for that? The 21P maybe for me the sweet spot for both.
