    Hello. I decided to repair the petrol lawn mower myself and it turned out that the ignition coil was dead. I bought and installed the ignition coil, but there is one problem! I do not know what gap to set between the coil and the magnet (magnet?) I am asking for advice.

    the video was ok! but I was learning another language. maybe some other hint?

    Added after 34 [seconds]:

    the gap of 0.4 mm will be not too small

    0.4 positions itself on the candle. This is definitely not enough.

    The pause as small as possible, as long as the wheel does not rub against the pole pieces.

    A feeler gauge would be the best, but a thicker piece of paper is enough to prevent problems.

    I would like to thank Rycho T. The given dimensions were very useful, the best dimension of the gap between the magnetic wheel and the coil is 0.23 mm. The engine works flawlessly.
    Thank you for all your help and best regards. "mooglie"
