Does anyone know the proper gap between the coil and flywheel on these saws? Can I just fold some computer paper and use that to set the gap? Thanks.

Seems hard to ever go wrong with a common business card to set the coil to flywheel gap.

Thank you, gentlemen. There isn't really any room for adjustment anyway.

At one time I used business cards but I found they got dirty and the edges became curled up over time (i.e., one or two uses and throw it out). Granted they are cheap but paper business cards are being used less and less in the business world. I now use a piece of plastic I cut out of a plastic one gallon milk container/jug (i.e. perfect thickness). I just cut a strip 2" X 3" out of the container's sidewall. I have been using the same piece of plastic for many years. If it gets dirty/greasy, just wipe it clean. It bends nicely to fit the the contour of the flywheel and is fairly slick/slippery for ease of removal. In fact, I use plastic milk cartons/jugs for multiple other uses. For example, cut a larger piece out of the jug for a quick and easy mixing pad for things like 2 part epoxy or create an impromptu funnel. In a pinch, I even used a longer piece to go around a piston and piston ring using a hose clamp (lite tension) to compress the piston ring into the landings in order to install the piston into the cylinder (a drop or two of oil on the piston and it slides out easy).
