But I am willing to try to learn. I need to learn anyways, plus I am dying to get this thing going! And help, or other suggestions on things to check would be awesome! Thanks guys!  |
You need a dwell meter to see if they are gapped correctly when running, or pop the cap and use a feeler gauge. Points look like a contacter and sometimes they get crusty or the entire surface could be burnt. You use an Allen wrench in the door on the dizzy to adjust. I dont know specs, been awhile. I think my '69 307 was something like 28-32.
