Re: Ignition Issues
...and the condensor is a part of the points assembly. Make sure you don't cheap-out on that part of your ignition system. Good parts make good sense. I use NAPA, when necessary. Standard/Blue Streak was my go-to brand "back in the day". It's been so long since I used points, I don't know if they're even in business or available.
You can set the dwell angle to 30 degrees, while cranking, to be sure the points are set to the correct gap. If you don't have the flexible allen tool to do that, it won't be as easy. It looks like a screwdriver, with a flex coupling (like a spring) and a straight 1/8-inch allen on the end.
