Ignition coil Air gap 0.2 – 0.6 mm (0.01 – 0.02 in)

IF that is a small engine and has a magneto. You need to check the gap between the coil and the magnet on the flywheel. The easiest way to judge that gap is with a business card. If it fits between the two parts without effort, then it is too much gap.

you mean gx 160 gc 160 ?

I look up honda engines at : honda-engines-eu.com they have the best access to detailed information. If you can identify the carb butterfly, any cable should attach to the butterfly control. I see a Honda GX100, but not a GX31.

Remove the spark plug and make sure that oil did not enter into the cylinder. Oil in the cylinder will feel like engine is siezed. With plug remove and engine will not turn suspect more serious problems. If the rod is siezed due to low oil, it can be replace by removing the sump. No big deal and could be nice project. Before you take anything apart, check that the cable to the safety stop is actually releasing. This could also make you think that the engine is siezed.

go to honda and enter info

try removing the float bowl on the carburator and cleaning, sounds like needle valve is partially stopped up

a coil wire may be shorting so look for damage on them!
you can sleeve them or a quality electrical tape will be ok for temp measure ok
Cheers Rob.

I believe it is either one but if you are not sure, stick a screw driver in an see if it comes out with oil on it. Does one not have an oil level stick attached to the cap?
