Hi,
I have a 200hp blackmax 1989 model.
Iv been doing dva tests(home made).Tested the stator(passed)the trigger was low in voltage 2.2volts I then removed idle/stabilizer wires as stated in the mercury book I have. The voltage was within spec on the trigger wires.
I placed numbers 1-6 on the flywheel. I placed timing light starting on 1 working my way to six.1-4fine showed up with timing light number 6 was also fine. But On number 5 it showed numbers 3,5and1.
I would assume this is a trigger problem would I be correct?
Engine smokes a lot and backfires on start up. Top of number
5 piston is cleaner then all the rest. I'm guessing because of the erratic timing on 5 it would be backfiring on 5 would I be correct in saying this. Any help much appreciated
