I have a 1978 century 23 foot cuddy mercruiser 350 260 hp.This is Jasper rebuild installed last fall. I set the timing at 8 degrees take it out on the water can only get 3400 rpm I moved the distributor till it sounds good and it runs fine. So after I get it home I reset the timing at 8 degrees thinking I must have done something wrong even used a different timing gun. I take it out same problem. played around with the distributor I got it at 3000 rpm at 30 mile per hour. But as soon as you get into the four barrel it dies.
timing or carb
