We're supposed to check the trigger coil clearance on the engine but the single B&W photo on the plans doesn't show much. The plans say that the procedure is in Section 15.1 of the Line maintennance manual, but none of the manuals supplied on the DVD that came with the engine have such a section. If we're supposed to stick a feeler gauge between the black rear housing (says "ROTAX") and the silver nipple, then I've got more than .016 clearance. But I'm not sure that's where to put the feeler-- you can change the clearance by changing the angle you stick it in at. But does that clearance change as the prop shaft is rotated?? The plans say to change the clearance by rotating the prop shaft but don't say what to look for/measure and when. Looks like this will be impossible once the engine is hung, so if I have a problem I have to fix it now. Suggestions from those who've been there??
Thanks!!!
