When checking Max. Advance on the water am I correct that as long as the timer base hits the stop the timing won't change if I push the throttle farther forward?

Can I check Max by just raising the warm up lever high enough? Not sure if it is supposed to actually move that far by just the warm up lever but mine will.

And yes I have seen the Top Secret file about how to set max advance.

This is on a 76 75HP Evinrude.

Re: Maximum Spark Advance

Follow the Top Secret File for setting it or put it in the water and run it with a load on it. If you run it on the muffs with the warm up lever you might have a rod or piston come out and say HI.
