    Tom won’t just using an in line spark test light work without removing the plugs ?
    I reset the points to .020 . Tried starting and would start so I started moving the timing lever to the left thinking it was the correct way and it would still backfire and shut off . So looking at the front of the motor I moved timing to the right . This gave much better results so I guess I miss understood pulling back the timing .
    So a few questions .
    I hooked the tiller arm and there seems to be a bit of play in the cable . This pic shows the location of the butterfly valve when it’s at start position on the handle . About a 1/ 4’’. Open .

    Is this correct ? When on slow it will close off completely..
    also trying to understand the high speed adjustment wheel . After the motor starts what doI set that wheel to .
    Anyone know of a video that explains the running procedure ?
    Ok one more ? Is it ok to take the prop off while running in the tank . Or will it mess up the lower unit at high rpm when it’s off …
    Thanks for any help guys ! Here is my tank set up ….
