Greetings list. I just replaced the points on my Sprite, and can't get the car to fire. It ran (poorly, due to no gap in the points) and now won't. Argh. Can someone give me an accurate list of the c

I would suspect that you have grounded out the points. This is not hard to do, because there are a few styles of points, and they insulate that arm differently. In other words, if you take the old on

THANKS! And I noticed you didn't use too many big words :) It's too hot here in Florida to do anything while the sun's out, so working on it is a challenge, especially on my ability to think. I sure

Howdy all On my bugeye I was having some missing problems, so I decided to clean the points, which I did just fine, and I set the gap and reinstalled them, car ran a little different but not much (ma

My guess is that the little nylon insulating washers that keep the spring metal isolated from the fixing post are either faulty, or are wrongly assembled. The curved spring metal blade must atttach t

I'd check that the spring steel band that holds the cam follower and the moving half of the points is correctly isolated from the vertical post by the little nylon bushings. If the moving point groun

I don't know about todays points but way back when I was a kid, points came coated in cosmoline or wax to protect the contacts. You had to clean them before installing them. Just a thought. If they a

Dear list: I have had no running problem with the Intermotor points at all. I wish the spark was more blue, and less yellow/blue, however. I assumed that it was my coil that as the culprit. The plast

I don't know who Lucas is owned by, but all the parts for our cars are now made in India by Ace. I found this out when I bought a voltage regulator from Lucas for $50 because I felt guilty about the

There is the possibility that the 'Lucas' part you purchased was a pirate or counterfeit part. Daniel1312

Where's a guy get a good set of points in the US? I just mail-ordered a set and they were some Intermotor brand I never heard of. Don't tell me Napa 'cause the counter guys at my store are doing good

Are the points bad? That is the brand that Lucas sold for many years. Intermotor is a rather large and significant vendor/manufacturer. Echlin thought enough of them to buy them, along with Quinton-

In the UK at least Lucas points were Lucas points. Intermotor are a cheap junk brand company whose parts I have never used including their coils. I think you will find that Intermotor (an American co
