Good thinking, Stu (re the heat). Hot here in Connecticut also, but= I just put down hundreds of pounds of mulch in the 90 degree heat (not ver= y smart on my part. . ?)

When you remove the points plate, be sure to take a close look at t= he insulating paper where the electrical connection stud goes through the h= ousing. I had a distributor on my machine once and saw flashover where the stud exited the casting. That is = something you would never be able to see when installed in any car. You can= look on line and get =E2=80=9Cfish paper=E2=80=9D or its equivalent to mak= e a new one if you want to be safe.

If you can get a Drem= el=C2=A0tool in there you might be able to clean the slot up so that it'= ;s useable.=C2=A0 Use one of their cutoff disks.
