* Engine Variations: Briggs & Stratton makes a wide range of 10 HP engines. Each model can have different spark plug specifications.
* Spark Plug Type: The ideal gap can vary slightly based on the type of spark plug used (e.g., copper, platinum, iridium).
* Manual is Key: The most accurate and safe information will be found in your engine's owner's manual. It will specify the correct spark plug gap for your specific model.
How to Find the Correct Spark Plug Gap:
1. Locate Your Manual: Look for your engine's manual. It may have come with the engine or you may find it online through the Briggs & Stratton website (you'll need your engine's model number).
2. Check the Spark Plug: The spark plug itself may also have the recommended gap printed on its side.
3. Consult a Professional: If you can't find the information, a local small engine repair shop can help you determine the correct gap.
Important Safety Note: It's crucial to use the correct spark plug gap for your engine. Too wide of a gap can lead to misfires and reduced performance, while too narrow of a gap can cause damage to the spark plug or even a short circuit.
