Default Re: FE autolite distributor dwell questions

Quote:
Dwell angle is the amount of time, measured as degrees of rotation, that contact breakers close in a distributor. Unless dwell angle is accurate, ignition timing won't be accurate. The period, measured in degree of cam rotation, during which the contact points remain closed is called the dwell angle.
DWELL is important, especially for mechanical points style distributors. Electronic distributors can compensate, mechanical can't.
