I seem to think point gap was .016- .018"on many of these. .020" at the outside. The condensor is connected at the stud the same as the coil wire.

Did you see the info at this
link? Please show the screw hole on the condenser and all of distributor's int dia.

Good Points Tom. That
is why I wanted to see the condenser's mounting tab, to try and relate where it
would fit. Then spot enough threads to connect the condenser. Enlarged,
there appears to be some threads left where the coil is connected. 1-2
more pics might show a clear connection.

I know the feeling
when you leave a task too long. I have not found a starter housing
for a 4 cycle Troy Bilt Trimmer that I took down 2-3 months ago. I’m
ready to donate it and show the part I broke related to pull starting and
electric. It started and ran. I hope a nut/adapter and torque spec will help it
start again.

Seamas, That srm-200-da link was my trimmer. Just curious, what model echo is yours?
