Re: clean that carb
If for no other reason ,I prefer the option of holding a feeler gauge in one hand while adjusting the adjustable point with a slot head screw .
Original points are so much easier to adjust and get a perfect setting of choice
When modern points are used in the model A distributor
It is usually necessary to prize and try to hold the correct position while tightening the screw that attaches the totally different V8 points to a modified upper plate .
I prefer the original points for a more accurate setting
Original style points was without doubt one of Fords better ideas
Ford liked to make things easy for the owner
I always like to make things easier on myself
If I wanted to punish myself I would listen to SAD country music
Though I did use the V8 points for a few years , I no longer punish myself with them
