CLEAN AND ADJUST CONTACT POINTS
Remove cover. Clean points with a carborundum contact point stone. Then insert a hard finished card or pied, of paper and close and open points. The paper will absorb any dirt or filings on the points. Adjust breaker points as follows:
a. Rotate crankshaft until points open to widest gap.
b.. Loosen lock nit illustrated below until it is just snug.
c. Rotate breaker point screw to obtain .020" gap.
d. When gap is .020" tighten locknut.
e. Replace breaker box cover. Same for installation, just eliminate the cleaning. CLEAN AND ADJUST CONTACT POINTS
