Idle problems
I just changed over from points to an electronic ignition and now I am having a bit of studder in the idle. It was idling really smooth before I did the conversion. Checked the air gap the carb setting, but it still has just a little bit of studder in it. I haven't taken her out on the lake to see what she does under a load, but I ordered a new rotor, cap and coil (made for Elect. Ign). Any Ideas....

Did you check the timing?

What should the timing be? does it get changed when you go to electronic?

Depending on the make of your distributor it could change. If you do a search for a thread that Engine Nut started with all the specs for all the indmar engines that MC has ever used it will tell you. But I think it is 10 BTDC for the prestolite.

It is a prestolite so I guess I should check it to make sure it didn't move during the change over
