spark plug gap

Anonymous-0 · Sep 12, 2008

Hey guys! I am going to put plugs in the 300 tommorrow and I don't have the owners manual with me(its at the farm) and I don't want to drive 40 miles round trip to find out so I thought I would ask you smart guys! What is the gap I need? Also I noticed a small cap to open on the generator looks like it would be to take oil. Do I need to oil it if so what kind of oil do I use? Thanks guys!

As far as the gap go's I am not sure for a 300. But that cap is for oil.. I use 10w30, just a couple drops.. Good luck..

It sort of depends on the particular ignition system, but on a garden variety tractor coil ignition if they were gapped somehwere around 0.025 to 0.030 or so she ought to do okay until you can get the exact specs.

.030 will run fine

Just a couple drops of oil in the generator bushing, I use engine oil and have had no problems.

.023 on the spark plug gap, as far as generator oil a small amount of 10-30 will do. tb
