recently ive accuired a 46cc gasser and during disassembly i failed to notice if there is SUPPOSED to be a gap between the mag/flywheel and case? also it has a weak spark. is there any way to boost it?

RE: poulan 46
The gap between the mag rotor and coil should be as close as possible without rubbing...No way to boost a weak magneto spark.....It gets stronger as the rpm increases....They don't need to be strong at low rpm because the chainsaws use a pull starter, as opposed to airplane engines that are hand propped...The old Quadra with points and the G38 are about the easiest starting magneto gassers...
