Is it normal for a backfire to spin the timing around jamming it up? I'm talking about what's under the flywheel...it spun around way past where the the thing that has the marks on it is and wedged itself in.
Where it connects on the carb from what I've found online it's supposed to start opening the butterfly between the timing marks and I've got that set right. But on the side you can see in the picture idk where to set the stop and can't find much online.
In not at home and didn't take a picture last night. It's on the port side of the motor and runs from the carb back to where the fast idle connects. It's got a barrel slide thing with a set screw in it. I'll try and find a picture online.
Hey everyone, I'm new to outboards but build hotrods as a hobby so I'm hoping to pick up on it pretty quickly. I've got alot of questions so please bear with me. My 1996 25hp Johnson was coughing and dying out at idle but would run great at wot so I was trying to do some carb tuning on it...
