Yes I would try the points ensure they can close nup very quickly some of
the ones available nowadays seam to wers dow the plastic cam leaver very
quickly. Set the gap and lubricate the shaft with a very thin light smear
of grease.

Cheers

Lubricate your own shaft turdo.
Why? you want him to take you up the ass? homo!

Make sure you set the gap before putting grease on the shaft. I find a few
bob spent on a dwell meter to be worthwhile. You can check the gap by
simply clipping the meter to the coil and earth. New points do tend to wear
closed as Turbo Jo says. I set them on the larger end of the gap range, say
2 degrees of dwell less than the spec.

Don't let your points wear too much and go ahead and splurge....grease
your shaft and give it to Bob.

Dwell is not that important for a 4 cylinder car as there is enough
dwell time for storage. Its the point gap set correctly is all that
matters.

Hi All,
Dwell = gap........
its just another way of setting the points gap,
The wider the angle = the narrower the gap
The narrower the angle = the wider the gap,
so when setting the Dwell angle, remove spark plugs, (not necessary, but
helps spin the engine faster).....
connect Dwell meter, put screwdriver in the adjuster slot in points, crank
engine, set Dwell to the lower end of scale,
(ie) a mini is 57 + or minus 3 , set to 54, this is the widest gap setting,
and as we all know, points always close when the heel wears down, so should
still be within the initial dwell spec,
HTH

Don't worry Rich, I myself didn't make that abusive post mate.

We have an aids infected, backwards, inbred Yank who Trolls newsgroups
including this one unfortunately. So just ignore any abuse sent your
way because it will most probably be from that freak!

Taffy

the troll lives in Reno, Nevada.

the troll's ISP is SBC Iternet Services, ( www.sbc.com) and the IP
number is 63.201.28.146

you can phone the ISP and complain about his/her abusive postings.
the phone number is +1 800 648 1626 or email abuse (AT) sbcglobal (DOT) net.
quoting the entire abusive posting, including all the header
information.

lets shut this one down.

I checked out the headers and the abuse (X-Complaints-To) address is
abuse (AT) prodigy (DOT) net is he using a different address now?

I suppose we could mail them both.

If you use google groups you can also use the show options link there is
a report abuse option.

You can easily spot his forged posts by looking at the headers.

Header info below, this is one where he is spoofing Taffy:

Remember that Trolls also like to crosspost a number of groups to wind
up the people in the various groups so they start a flame war between
the groups, so remember not to cross post back, that's what they want.
It looks like we have been joined by one of Mad Max's mates who is cross
posting irrelivant drivel to these groups rec.ponds, alt.usenet.kooks,
alt.religion.jehovahs-witn, alt.autos.mini, misc.health.alternative
