Default Re: points question

A trick I learned from an old friend, was to sand/grind two flats om the top of the stud for the mounting of the points. This will require removing the stud by springing the loop on the end of the points. The stud can now be replaced in the distributor plate for the final time. The flats when positioned correctly, will allow you to lift the points out without removing the plate to get at the nut under the plate. It makes it easier to change just the points. Clear as mud, right ?
