I have a Emark Lazer with a Kohler CH26 Fuel injected engine.
In the Owner's Manual under the checking spark plugs section it says to set the gap to 0.030 in. and to "see figure" well in the figure it shows the gap at 0.040 in. I am using Champion 2071 plugs. When I checked the gap of the plugs I took out of the engine they were at 0.035 in. Does anybody know which is the right gap? Does it make any difference what they are set at? I don't want to hurt the engine with the wrong gap. Thanks

0.030 in. is correct

Do not worry,if you set the gap at .040,todays motors(that motor has 2 coils) have more than enough to ignite the plug. Most manuals call for .030. I set my plugs at .028.

Like ZX12R said it dosen't really matter, if it ran good at .035 than gap them at .035.
