Hello-
I have a 1950's Evinrude 5.5hp fisherman. It is a good little motor but i recently noticed that at full throttle the carb is not opening wide open. I tried to adjust the timing plate but it is only slotted on tne front screw and cannot be adjusted ont he second screw. Does anyone have any ideas how i can adjust this linkage to make it open WOT?

Thanks
