Timing adjustment

[Tleazenby]

The timing on my 1999 yamaha 115 is suppose to be 25 btc. It is 30+ degrees. I would assume I make the adjustment using the linkage under the fly wheel that connects to the upper part of the throttle arm.? Is this correct.

I thought they had a stop screw by the upper carb on the starboard side of the motor for the max adv. But here I am thinking again.<br /><br />corm

Corn: There is a max adv. stop srew there. would I use it or the linkage adjustment?

Re: Timing adjustment

Use the max stop screw Tleazenby. That way you wont change the idle pickup point.<br /><br />corm
