Connected components of $\Map(S^4,B\SU(2))$ are the classifying spaces of gauge groups of principal $\SU(2)$-bundles over $S^4$. Tsukuda [Tsu01] has investigated the homotopy types of connected components of $\Map(S^4,B\SU(2))$. But unfortunately, the proof of Lemma 2.4 in [Tsu01] is not correct for $p=2$. In this paper, we give a complete proof. Moreover, we investigate the further divisibility of $\epsilon_i$ defined in [Tsu01]. In [Tsu], it is shown that divisibility of $\epsilon_i$ have some information about $A_i$-equivalence types of the gauge groups.
