So I can move my distributor around its axis about 5 degrees in either direction. I had a stalling problem (ended up being the IAC) but trying to start the boat again I was fiddling with the distributor. Now the boat works well. But not until I "retuned" the position by ear. Letting the boat idle I could affect how the motor sounds with small rotations of the distributor. I got it to idle smoothly. At running speed turning the distributor affected the way the boat ran only at the extremes. So I left it at the "smoothest" sounding idle.
Now I am aware that the boat can be properly tuned. I'm not sure if being able to move the distributor is even normal. Any idea what I should do either now or during pre winter maintenance?
