Default Re: measure gap between rotor and plug posts in distributor cap

Back in the day I wanted to save as many electrons as I could just for the sparklers. So I soldered the distributor contacts to keep that gap as small as possible. I'd solder and then spin the shaft by hand to scrape off all the lead I could. I didn't want any misfires at 8K.
