Ok so here's the issue, my 73 evinrude 25hp is missing on the bottom cylinder. I ran it, pulled the bottom plug and it ran better, put the bottom one in and pulled the top and it died. I've switched the engine coils by the spark plugs and the same issue.
Now as for everything new, I have a new tank, hose, filter on the hose, rebuilt fuel pump, new thermostat, the carbs rebuilt and all new wires, new plugs.
i set the gap on my points and they open with the "set" mark on the cam hits em. However, the marks on the armature plate don't line up. Now obviously the throttle moves the armature plate "thus moving where the two marks on there are at"
where does the throttle need to be at to set the timing .?
