What motor is this? Take your timing light with you and check it/adjust it with it idling on the trailer in the water. Hopefuly changes things, but 20* sounds like an AWFUL lot initial timing to me no matter what engine.....(Well, if it's a Kawasaki that might be different, dunno about them..... )  But it would seem hard to start. The 35* part I can buy.
