What am I missing if I can not get a dwell reading above 40 degrees? If I go any further there is no reading at all? Dereck 70 B _________________________________________________________________ Join

The higher the dwell the smaller the gap and the longer the points are closed. Maybe you are closing it up altogether. Set the points by gap and then check the dwell. Once that is done you can simply

I think Paul has hit the proverbial nail on the head. Assuming that all the parts are correct for this application (which is a bit of a reach. Auto parts stores tend to lump all variants of older des

This is the only real option with this distributor -- unless you are talking about trial-and-error setting -- as there is no direct dwell measurement except perhaps with the distributor equivalent of

Those letters LT have come up in one other question I had a couple of months ago (intermitant tach) that you answered. I guess I should really focus in on it. Mine does look like it has seen better d

Problem being I don't have one to compare it to. When you see a worn one is there a grove in the cam where the follower has been traveling? Mine looked symetrical over the entire cam. Dereck 70 B --

That wire is braided copper tinsel which is highly flexible as it has to cope with the points plate continually flexing under vacuum advance. Replace it with the same stuff if you can, ordinary stran

The factory V8 has a hex bar sticking out the side of the distributor body which is the only way to adjust the points gap. I have never used gap to set the points on that, always dwell. Ironic, reall

In a pinch, I have used a product called solder wick to replace the braided copper wire. Solder wick is used to suck-up solder from a connection when you are disassembling electronics. It is saturate

The BOP V8s, and probably the Rovers, have a window that you reach into with a 1/8th inch Allen key to set dwell. james -- Original Message -- From: Telewest (PH) <paul.hunt1@blueyonder.co.uk> To: Ri

I would guess there is some corrosion or deposits on the points that is preventing them from making a good electrical connection. Are the points new? I'd give them a little attention with a points fi
