At some point, Mercury removed the decal from the cowling and replaced it with a decal on the flywheel and a timing pointer. It is critical to set the timing pointer before attempting to set the timing. I use a static method of setting the maximum advance; disconnect the throttle cable and turn the engine counterclockwise so the timing mark is 1/4 turn or more before TDC, turn the engine clockwise to the 21 BTDC degree mark. Remove #1 sparkplug and ground it. Turn the key on and manually advance the distributor until you hear the spark snap. That is maximum advance, loosen the lock nut and set the screw at that point. I set the primary throttle pickup at 4 BTDC degree mark. If the throttle vanes are opening too soon, the motor will bog down. The motors make full advance before the throttle opens much at all. This is set by the primary and secondary pickups. This maximum advance with minimal throttle is also the reason the motors that use the "economizer" carb circuit tend to burn pistons, full advance and lean mixture = trouble. here
Shove the throttle wide open. Turn ignition switch ON. Remove #1 spark plug and get it well grounded to side of head. I piece of wire wrapped around threads works well if you don't have a helper. Put pull handle on nut on top of flywheel. Back flywheel (counter clockwise looking down from top) around well past timing marks and stop. Rotate flywheel back in a clockwise direction and listen for the sparkplug to pop (fire) observing the position of the timing mark. Do not advance the timing past 21�. Adjust timing stop and go back through proceedure to check. Of course you can also do a wide open throttle check IN THE LAKE with a timing light hooked up, stop, adjust the timing, and then go again. Inlines are very critical as far as the low speed timing/carb pickup synchonization. What I've always done on MY engines isn't exactly the same as the manual, and it draws conflicting opinions when I've posted it in the past from some VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE inline guys, so my best advice there is to buy a manual and set 'em like the book says. One thing that nobody debates is that the engine has to get MOST OF the timing advance in before the carbs start to crack open. If the carb pickups are adjusted where the carbs crack too early in the sequence you'll get a bog. [links]
A Mercury service manual is a must; there should be a "link and sync" topic on this site. Somewhere. more
