Thankyou for all that
There are degree markings on the fly wheel from +10 to -30 and yes it
does have points.
I have checked out the parts diagrams available from the US Yamaha site
for the 84 8 hp model.
http://www.yamaha-motor.com/products...p?lid=5&lc=otb
then the Parts and service menu parts catalogue
I dont think the process is quite the same on my motor as there is no
adjustable link rod or any adjustable stop.
however thankyou very much for your interest and help
Chris
