I'll have to look again...did CC make a 1650 in magneto? otherwise I think the CC manual says .025 and my old 1250 (now actually a 1650 I guess since I replaced an abused K321 with a K341 about 20 years ago) runs much better at the .025 gap.

I replaced the carb and points and was still getting heavy carbon fouling (Champion H10C that I have always used since that is what the new motor came with)...goofy operation when warm and spit/pop/backfired on shutdown.

Now reading here I see that people tend to gap points at .018...I went the .020 as instructed. If I get the same result, it's a lot easier to gap the plug than those points (takes an hour to just get the cover on and off after searching for the dropped screws!).
