Hey guys, ‘99 johnson ocean pro j175pxees carburated, 102 to 106 compression. 424hrs
Been working on this motor for about a year after a slew of problems from sitting after the owner had a stroke and left it in a storage yard for years. New power pack cdi, carbs rebuilt with new bowls , fuel in the pulse so new pump fixed that im so close!
Now my problem is ignition related, i have had to advance the timing roller arm a little more than i would have liked (1/16” ) gap past the stop and she runs great there but think there is a reason why i have to adust it to this point that exist somewhere else in the system. At lease once per trip she will idle rough after use then stall with no spark until cools completely then starts right up! Any common problems that would cause this hot no start? I appreciate any help in advance i just want to tow my 4 kids around on the tube all day without trouble thanks!!
