Default Re: Spark plug gap

Are you running any type of CD ignition? You do use up spark energy to "Jump" the gap, that is why a Mag has to run a tight gap- like .020 so while cranking the spark will actually jump.

I've found on CD systems, a larger gap works but on conventional .035 is a good place to start.
