New Points Set
Hello All,
These points arrived in the mail today from Ken Hughes.
They look heavy duty good quality parts.
MLU is certainly great for friendship and the exchange of ideas and parts.
Thanks Ken.
I will pull the distributor out and install them when I get a minute. No splash plate made yet so the job will be quite easy.
The other photo is the strobe light timing dot (TDC No 1 firing stroke) on the pulley with the scale plate bolted to the front cross member. The four witness marks are to install it in the proper place each time. The pointer is at TDC and the degrees of advance can be worked out from there.
The mark is best done with the heads off using a dial indicator or straight edge and feeler gauges.
I decided to do this after rebuilding the engine so I fitted a small clear plastic tube to an old spark plug body with the other end of the tube in a jar of coloured liquid taking care not to suck anything up into the cylinder.
Regards,
Terry.
