OK I don't understand how to do this.
This is the flywheel off my Husky 185CD saw, the spark is weak, so I thought I'd check it out, there was some build up shmoo, but not much. I'm wondering if the air gap needs to be reset or checked...?
I got the flywheel off, but how the heck do you check to see if the air gap is correct?
I scribed some marks on the coil and the body of the saw so I could put it back where it started, and when I took the coil off, the holes are elongated in the coil (if that is what it's called) so that the coil could rotate left or right. I'm thinking that elongated holes allow the unit to move eccentrically perhaps to change the air gap?
I understand on other saws how you stick a business card between the flywheel and the coil to check the gap, but on this saw the coil is underneath the flywheel...?
Looking for some instruction.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers from Tokyo!
