How do you set the gap between the coil and the

Hello,
My name is Dane and I am going to help you solve your problem.
Too set the gap for the coil get a regular buisness card and use it as a feeler gauge. Loosen the bolts to the coil. Rotate the flywheel so the magnets are next to the coil. Slide the buisness card in between the coil and the flywheel magnets and make sure the coil is tight against the card.
Now tighten down your coil bolts and remove the busisness card. Turn the flywheel at least 1 complete turn and make sure it doesn't hit the coil. You're done!!!
Well, I hope I've helped. If you found this information useful, please leave me some THUMBS UP if you think I'm deserving! :-) Thank you! Dane

Engine working fine, but water not coming out

Couple of things, is the water supply good? if that's a yes, then check to see if there is a way to engage / disengage the pump, some models offer that, if engaged and good water supply, then it has to be your pump

I need to know where to hookup a amp meter on a husqverna lawnmower with a 18.5 hp briggs & stratton engine

There should be a single wire that runs from the voltage regulator to the ignition switch. There are usually two more wires on this regulator that run under flywheel to the alternator coil. Use this Wie as the input or + on guage. Then make a wire to connect the other guage terminal to the Ign. Switch.

I have a snapper Briggs & Stratton push mower mod# 12A-A2BE707 I drained the old gas and put fresh in and it still won’t start it’s like it’s not firing

Did you also empty the fuel from the carb bowl. It may have some water in it which came in from the gas tank. Be careful not to break round gasket. Good Luck Friend.

It seems that the solution to the stuck choke is to take the power washer to a repair service. This did not help.

Stuck choke? Like the carburetor's choke butterfly valve? There are bushings that can be replaced in the shaft. The valve plate slides out gently with needle-nosed pliars in a top to bottom motion pulling the top loose then rocking the bottom out. The butterfly plate will only go back one way so you're kinda safe there. It's in it's correct position when the valve closes off the intake throat snugly and FREELY. You can put your opened needle-nose jaws in the breather holes of the plate and slowly twist as you move the shaft in a "choke-on" "choke-off" position repetitiously until the butterfly seats in the throat with NO HANG-UP'S. It should move very freely. Once you had the butterfly out, the choke shaft will lift out of the carb. There are bushings that seat down in the top of the carb that the shaft slides thru. If the bushings are worn so that dirt is able to enter and interfere with it's air/fuel mixture. There's also a sponge washer and possibly a spring. I'd take a pic of it before removal for reference. Not sure if that helped.
