I assume you mean ignition coil air gap?
I believe they are generally 10-15 thou... i could not find any specifics on the model ,
usually a index or business card thickness will do

Thanks but thats not that gap this is the one between the 2 magnets that are glued to the inside of the flywheel that pass over the magneto / coil that gap is set by the mounting of magneto the B/S is the one with the mag over / outside the flywheel tecumseh is inside the wheel but thanks

It may work after gluing the magnet back on but you would do better sourcing another flywheel from a junked engine. Snow blowers are a good source if you live in the snow belt
