Does anyone have the correct procedure for a Link & Sync of a 1982 70hp (3cyl., 2 Carb) Mercury outboard, serial number 6164457? I have tried some of the link and sync procedures but I am getting poor results. My OEM service manual does not contain the full procedure such as primary pickup adjustment. I am not sure if the timing is supposed to advance before carbs begin to open or both timing advance and carb opening occur simutainiously.

Thanks in advance.
