air gap improperly set between fly wheel and magneto, bad coil, spark plug harness. Would not hurt to check the spark plug gap and ensure the connector end is tight
The magneto armature is attached to the crankcase next to the flywheel. It can be located by following the spark plug wire. This leads directly from the spark plug to the magneto.
The magneto air gap is a precision measurement that's taken between the edge of the flywheel and the ignition coil armature. The flywheel and the crankshaft are held together in alignment by the flywheel key.
No, the magneto provides the voltage for the spark.
Your weed eater spark plug may not be firing due to issues such as a dirty or faulty spark plug, a disconnected or damaged spark plug wire, or a problem with the ignition system. It is important to check and replace the spark plug if needed, ensure the spark plug wire is connected properly, and troubleshoot the ignition system to resolve the issue.
No, a magneto is what creates electricity to send to the spark plug. Without a magneto, any gasoline engine will not run because it will not have a spark.
I believe its .020 with a magneto.
If the P-lead is grounded, the magneto doesn't generate spark. Basically it turns the engine on and off.
According to Wikipedia, a magneto starter, also called the ignition magneto, provides current or pulses for the ignition system of a spark-ignition engine, like fuel engines.
If you have access to a spark tester, use it. Otherwise, remove the spark plug, reconnect it to the spark plug wire, and rest the tip or threads on a good engine ground, AWAY from the spark plug hole. Attempt to start it, and watch for spark. If none, replace the spark plug and try again. If still no spark, the magneto coil may be faulty.

No the spark plug wires have to be in firing order
To test the magneto on a 1995 Kawasaki KLX 650, first, ensure the bike is off and the spark plug is removed. Use a multimeter set to measure resistance (ohms) to check the magneto's primary and secondary coils for continuity. Compare the readings to the specifications in the service manual; if the readings are outside the recommended range, the magneto may need to be replaced. Additionally, you can check for spark by connecting the spark plug back to the ignition coil and cranking the engine to see if it produces a spark.
