I believe the motor your working on doesn’t have points so you can’t use a timing fixture on my buddies 1961 50hp Mercury when the throttle started to open the points needed to open or it would stall not really your problem but interesting about timing of ignition verses carb. I was thinking what if you took off the cam roller on carb and adjusted timing to see if you could get a good idle if you find it then you would know when butterfly needs to open. I think one of mine I actually had the low speed screw turned out like 4.5 turns letting more fuel in at idle. Just wonder if that might help.
Also when I slow down an outboard I do it slowly and let everything catch-up since its all mechanical. I am sure you do also but I have had to show folks that when operating an outboard.
