Hi, I am trying to resurrect the engine listed above and am having trouble with the new coils. The heel / pickup on the new coils sticks out about 1/8” farther than the old coils and I have to squeeze the coils together with a c-clamp to even get the flywheel on.
According to the online parts lists, I received the right coils so how do I make them fit?
- turn down the shaft of the mounting screw so I can adjust the coil back further? I’m not sure I have enough meat to turn it down and still have the necessary strength.
- drill out the coil adjustment slot to allow it to adjust further back?
- grind down the heel / pick up to give tue proper coil to flywheel gap?
