Default Re: Attention distributor rebuilders!

Jim,
I this week ordered 15 sets of standard points and had to return 9 of them. Went to my local Napa and had them order In 10 sets of echlin, and luckily only had to return two of the ten sets.

As you have likely experienced, the LH stationary point on both brands often needs slight bending (no big deal).

Today I got in a set of WVE brand points. They seemed to fit and adjust far better than the others, however they look the same. Maybe it was luck or maybe they are better, and maybe they are made in the same plant as the others; who knows.

The company is owned by NGK and has no affiliation with standard. They have the same part# as the airtex wells points which also has no affiliation with standard. The only problem is they are expensive (twice the price). I also tried a set of carpenter points and threw them in the trash before I even finished installing them.

Maybe I’m over reacting like always on this recent point issue. But for some reason it’s driving me nuts
