I have a 8hp B&S engine and need to replace a spark plug wire.  It doesn't appear to be removable from the magneto.  Do I have to replace the whole darned magneto armature?

Part according to the parts manual:

Anything I should know about doing this, like being careful to get the right gap, etc?

Thanks in advance,

They sell a rubber boot and squeeze-on end that you can replace the "terminal end" that connects to the plug itself...

Good luck,

Got the part and popped it in.  One pull and the darn thing fired right up!!

Now I need to tune it up, as I'm having trouble getting the right mix and it's hard to start...

Thanks for the advice!
