Reroofing - do you tape the edges?
The sides are aluminum and the roof is plywood. There is a 1 to 2 inch gap between them. I think i should cover the gap with something , like duct tape or butyle tape or something. I will be covering...

That's a large gap. I'm wondering if it could be filled with canned spray foam (Great Stuff), let it cure and trim off the excess?
Or just cut some wood to fit in the gap?
I would not just tape it, that would leave a weak spot on the roof.
Definitely don't use duct tape.
After you fill the gap and replace the roof, use Eternabond to tape the roof edges and any seams on the roof.
Maybe someone will have a better idea.
Let us know what you do to correct the gsp.
