High Voltage Ignition Systems can be Dangerous - Use Caution when Servicing Ignition Systems
1. Install the coil and lightly tighten the mounting bolts.
2. Rotate engine so the coil is aligned with the magnet portion of the flywheel.
3. Insert the feeler gauge between the flywheel and coil.
4. Adjust the coil gap at both side of the coil.
