Well, it will jump any gaps. But you don't want it to. It will wear out whatever it is jumping, and it will lower the voltage (and lessen the spark) at the spark plug. If you left a gap for it to jump, or even think it might, you need to disassemble and do it again. The only place there should be a gap is on the end of the spark plug.
