Swap the link arms. Put the short one on trigger

Bullet, you gave me a good idea I adjusted the bottom link over a half inch out , timing went to 10 btdc , I adjusted trigger link to 9 btdc , then had to adjust wot roller cam and then wot screw off of stop then 1 turn on stop per manual. I haven't taken it to the lake yet but have good vibes . I just can't understand why / or how the mercury dealer mechanic got it SO WRONG!!!!
CERTIFIED LETTER GOING OUT TODAY, 30 DAYS TO RESPOND THEN THE COURT HOUSE
