Question:

Timing and loss of power on Chevy marine 350

by Guest10275238 | 2 years, 7 month(s) ago

I rebuilt the Carb for my Marine Chevy 350. I had a problem getting it to idle, which was a gas problem I think. I cleaned out the old gas. But not until I moved the timing all over the place. I never removed any wires and never removed the distributer. I got it to start and idle nice but it has no power under load. Is it still a timing problem?

I had the same problem. I would check your total advance @ 3000rpm, my mechanical advance was stuck. You should be about 8 btdc at idle and in the low 30's at 3000 rpm
