What is required to check the link and sync?
Maybe its time to buy a Seloc manual for this outboard. I read in another thread a member was having the same issues i am having and everybody said to move to a smaller higher pitched prop. I just hate to spend money on something that wont help. It wouldn't be so bad if i was working, but right now i am on workers comp and it sucks.

His old crossflow isn't going to run quite as strong as a newer looper. He should be turning up to about 5300RPM's WOT and I would think high 30's to maybe 40 is possible if all is right with it.

I am beginning to believe this big *** prop is my trouble. The 15x17 i found for $40 was sold before i could call. Based on what i have read through here i am leaning towards a 14.5x17 prop. Right now i am swinging a 15.5x14 and also have a 15.5x15 aluminum (spare) that does even worse.
I put my throttle wide open, and yes, all carbs are wide open. So my issue is not there i believe. I was able to run it on the hose and use the rest of my sea foam out of my 6 gallon tank that i couldn't use when running. The previous owners have put some money into this motor. She cranks within two seconds now.  Also what should my compression be?

I ain't got no idea what the correct compression should be but I'd tend to believe 90psi and above should be good. And hope for less than 10% difference between the cylinders.
Have you tried to reposition the engine up a hole or two? I'm guessing about 3/4" above the bottom of the boat (cavitation plate) should be close.

Right now my cavitation plate is level, maybe a hair lower, than the keel. I will set up a scaffold frame tomorrow and lift her up. How many holes? Right now the top bolt is in the 2nd hole from the top.
