Default Vanguard question

I have a 3165 that won't run and doesn't have much spark if any and that is how I purchased it. I pulled the tins from around the flywheel and everything looked good, no chewed or shorted wires and ordered two new mag's. I did not install them yet, but they ohm out the same and one of the two that was on it looks new. I did not check the gap but it looks hard to set because the magnet barely reaches both sides of the mag. Does the pic look normal? The instructions said to use 3 thicknesses of the paper to set the gap so that is what I will try. Am I missing anything else?
