Just curious what the gap should be for an 86 st 200 due to trying to fine out why it is bogging down so bad and it seems that there is leftover fuel in the cylinder
I would think it would be 12 if your using feeler gadges

If you have a two line fuel system make sure the lines didn't get crossed. If they are you could still get gas to the cylinder but not enough. I hope this will of some help to you. Donnyb60

This is for a duel line trimmer. I hope this will help.
Cut two separate pieces of string, about 7 ft. each.
Stick the end of
the line in the hole on the inside of spool.
Wind clockwise onto spool,
putting the line that is closest to the ground on first.
Once you have
winded this piece on, lock the last 4 inches of line through the slits
on spool.
Repeat process for second piece of line, locking the last 4
inches in slot opposite the other locked in piece.
Put the spool on the
trimmer, feeding the end of lines through either hole on trimmer.
Before you push the spool all the way on, pull the strings out of the
locked position. Put cap on and GO CRAZY!

If you look closely there should be 2 holes in the fuel tank, also if you look inside the fuel tank there should be some remaining pieces of the fuel line and a fuel filter. If this has been sitting for any length of time you will also want to replace the fuel filter.
Now comes the fun... or a challenge
To start with you will need 2 sizes of fuel line ( go to a small engine repair shop) while you are replacing things you may want to buy a new primer bulb also.
to insert the fuel lines into the tank you will have to cut a tapered tail about 2 " long so that you can grab the fuel line with a needle nose and pull them through and out of the tank so that you can trim off the tapered tails. On one install the fuel filter and stick back into the tank, on the other trim the tapered tail off and pull the line back into the tank but leave about 1" sticking through the tank.
Now hook up you fuel lines to the carb and/ or primer bulb
Fill tank half full with fuel ... now test the installation if it doesn't pump fuel but instead you can hear it blow bubbles in the tank it is simple just reverse your lines on the carb / primer bulb
Retest if it works like it should you are ready to attempt to start it... good luck
