Hi ,
I'm working on an old Echo 330 EVL chainsaw with the two coil system . There are also three magnets on the flywheel together in a row . The saw was sparking some , used a tester to test it and it shocked me a little . Ignition coil was up against flywheel and there was dirt and grease between the coil and flywheel. I took the flywheel off and loosened coil , cleaned flywheel and coil , put back together and set air gap between flywheel and coil with a business coil. Also , cleaned all other connections ( wire , bolt ,etc. )for better contact. Now tester shows that it's not firing . What is the air gap on these saws ? I took spark plug out and used a 1/2 air impact gun to turn crank in order to test as the rope spring is missing . What did I do wrong ? Never worked on anything with two piece coils .Thanks for any and all help .
