The magneto should not touch the flywheel. In fact, you have to adjust the gap between the coil and flywheel magnets so that the flywheel magnet lines up directly with the magnetic coil and feeler gauge tool.
How close should the magneto be from the flywheel?
010-inches or between . 010 and . 014-inches. Rotate the flywheel so that the flywheel magnets line up directly with the magnetic coil and filler gauge tool.
How do I know if my magneto is bad?
Holding the plastic handle of the screwdriver, bring the metal area of the screwdriver close to a metal part of the engine, being careful not to touch it. Have someone start the mower. If you don't see a spark between the screwdriver and the engine, the magneto is bad.
