i think its adjustable not sure, but when i had it apart there was 4 little allen screws at the top of it maybe to set where it stops?

Haha, I think it was embedded the first time around so there was no clicking, but yea I'm like 98.76% sure that's the fire ring. Mine is gapped like that too and works fine. I think it'll shut under vaccumm.

Wanna sell me the diaphram out of the other one?

my knock off tial is nothing like that. the fire ring doesnt sit flush it sits out a little so when you tighten it the ring compresses the pistion
