I have a Tempest w/ a 228 hp that has an ignition problem/s. I'm looking for the advance deg. @ what rpm for max advance? It has a Mallory distributor with adjustable advance wieghts. The coil now is losing the oil out of it? The boat is slugish out of the (hole) and can not reach WOT of 4300 rpm, gets 3500 rpm approx. Also the boat starts well cold but after a run of 20 min. it is very slow to turn over-seems ignition related!! Sorry for all the questions here but I believe I have ignition problems here. Also what is the volts on the primary side of the coil while running?<br /><br />Thanks in advance<br />Scott
