i believe it is .010 to .015. you can go to B&S site to find out for sure
You buy a coil with it on it
The coil is under the cowling on top of the motor where the flywheel is.
you can goto briggsandstratton.com and get a manual for that engine,
On a 19.5 hp Briggs & Stratton engine, the points are typically located under the flywheel, which is situated at the top of the engine. To access the points, you will need to remove the flywheel and possibly the ignition coil. The points are part of the ignition system, responsible for opening and closing the electrical circuit that ignites the fuel-air mixture in the engine. It's important to consult the engine's service manual for specific details and procedures related to your engine model.
I have a 14.5 Briggs and Stratton engine on a Ranch King riding mower that will not start. After spraying starter fluid into the head, and air cleaner it fires for a second, but will not run. It is getting gas.....coil??? or something else?
The easiest way is to use a standard business card between the coil and the magnet part of the flywheel.
go to B&S site they have all gap setting for every engine they have made.
The coil gap on a 4 HP Briggs & Stratton engine is typically set to about 0.012 to 0.020 inches (0.30 to 0.51 mm). This gap is the distance between the ignition coil and the flywheel, which is crucial for proper spark generation. It's important to use a feeler gauge to ensure accurate settings for optimal engine performance. Always refer to the specific model's service manual for exact specifications.
On Briggs and stratton or techumseh.com Just go to ask.com and type in the brand of product and it should come up.
The gap should be about .0125 in. (.3175 mm.) or the thickness of heavy paper.
Depending on year and model of motor. : You will find the contacts either under the fly wheel or there will be a pick-up on the coil.
Briggs & Stratton Ignition Coils have NO documented measurement for the primary windings, however readings of between 0.3 and 0.7 ohms are common. The secondary windings should measure between 2K and 4K (including the resistance of the spark lead)
