Hi All
Quick question, I have a Star edger(cheap Chinese crap but cost me nothing to get)and I've got a new coil pack to put on it. Question is what sort of gap do you have between it and the flywheel? It's a 2.5hp motor 4 stroke.

BTW you can all stop laughing now............Parts were easy to get anyway and cheap...........

If you have a business card use that as your gap between the coil and flywheel. cheers2

Thanks Bruce. Is this a standard gap for all coil packs?
