What should the point gap be on a P1800 engine?
Set the points too wide and the spark plugs don’t get enough juice — your engine whimpers. Set them too close and the engine works fine for a few miles. Then it stops because the points are so badly burned they can’t perform their function. The Haynes manual recommends a point gap of .016-.020 inches for engines used in the P1800.
How can I adjust the gap between the electrodes?
Run the gauge between the ground and central electrodes. If it can’t pass through the gap or does so without touching both electrodes, the gap needs adjusting. To adjust the gap distance, simply bend the ground electrode towards or further away from the centre electrode.
Do you need to adjust the gap settings of a spark plug?

What’s the difference between.018 and.020 gauges?
Unfold the .018″ and the .020″ gauges. When you can insert the .018″ gauge between the points without touching both of them, the gap is wide enough. To make sure it is not too wide, remove the .018″ gauge and insert the .020″ gauge. If the wider gauge can only be inserted touching both points, you have the correct gap.
How is the gap on a spark plug measured?
The gap is the distance between the ground electrode (metal strap) and the center electrode. This distance is measured (and adjusted) with a spark plug gapping tool. Adjustments are made by moving the strap closer to (or farther from) the center electrode. Measure and adjust the gap (as necessary) to twenty-five thousandths of an inch. (0.025).
