Tim, I believe you are correct, has the trigger wheel. |

Don't forget to replace your fuel filter/s.

Sorry... I can't help with your tune-up questions - I'm learning the ropes myself, but I wondered if you have experienced the same occa$$ional start-up problem I have. It sounds as if you have the same engine set-up in your '94 as I have in my '95.

Kind of like when you went to a party in high school, go away now, see ya, come back when you can't stay so long! |

Change oil and filter
Check plugs; Replace if pitted or burned Check wires; Replace if stiff or damaged ends Clean spark arrestor Check belt tension Check fuel water separator Replace fuel filter Check timing Check idle speed Check trans oil Check prop shaft packing Check battery water level Check all hose clamps Check all electrical connections Check and clean the water strainer Grease trailer wheel bearings Check trailer brake fluid And most importantly, Wax the hull; Nothing runs better than a shiny boat. |

Youre correct- you would need a gun to check your timing. Might not be worthwhile unless you suspect you have a timing problem though- I dont believe you can adjust the base timing with the Protec. |
