Re: Volvo Penta 4.3GL problems I'm Confused??
The overheat happened 2 years ago it did pull 4,600 RPMs after that. I just put the new carb on along with all the other parts mentioned above.
I was out yesterday with somebody else driving and I had a timing light on, and found that it would only advance to 17 deg. btdc. Isn't it supposed to go to 23 deg.? I now get 4,300 RPMs but at wot it has a stumble (it drops about 100 RPMs then comes back consistantly). It dosn't sound like a ignition drop but I may be wrong. Is it possable the coil is weak? It is the only thing I have not replaced. Again it runs perfect accept I can't get it to run the rest of the RPMs.
Thanks Don, Barry
