I got the wiring harness, timing belt & cranking link & sync done. The timing thing I was confused about but went with my gut. #1 piston TDC. & lined the rotor to #1 (late phasing of rotor button to dist cap post)
The cranking looked like around 9.5 deg by the lable at max advance but, the lable says #1 cyl max advance 10 deg also the is no gap between ign advance & first stage carb opening.
I need to get a book. My dad (who gave me the boat says he's got the book...... That dont do me any good right now though.
I was going to run it with the lower unit off for 30 secs or a min.\ to see how it sounded. However, I could not bring myself to put gas in it. My new fuel primer line & fuels lines, rebult carbs & fuel pumps. It's all virgin at the moment and just to sit for maby another week. I'll wait, I have faith it is right & will fire right up.
Need to finish the lower unit, It was full of good old gear oil no water evidence & full, so maybe it was just the engine oil/storage lube at the prop that I saw. I am sure that one trim cylinder is leaking stays wet after I clean it off, will have to do something with that sometime.
I am a dumb *****!!! Hold both the up trim & tilt butons at the same time to full tilt. I had bypassed the limit switch to get full tilt untill I looked at how the switch was wired. I rolled under the dash with my meter in hand ready to "go to town" on the problem. FUNNY!!!
Maby some pics later....Looking foward to getting it on the water.
