I was just reviewing some maintainance records. In September 1990 I
installed a Mallory dual points distributor in my MGA. In July of 1997 I
replaced the contact points for the first time. In between I adjusted
the gap(s) occasionally, maybe once a year. Elapsed distance was a
little over 70,000 miles. One set was pretty well "used up". The other
set didn't look half bad, so I put them in the box with the travel
spares.
One for the records? Seems like a long life to me.
