Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice.

I have just replaced the coils because one had no spark. The problem I am having is how do I measure the gap between the flywheel and the coil. To me its not accessable. .20 is recommended.
Welcome to iboats. <br /><br />The posts that the coils are mounted to are machined. If you align the coil frames with the machined edge of those, you'll be close enough. Points gap is .020
Neighbor had the same answer. thanks for the info. after replacing coils one cylinder still not firing. I think next step should be condensers. any suggestions would be appreciated.
