My question relates to: If it only changed the dwell .8 degrees when you took the coil off/on, who cares? You probably wouldn't move it again anyways. That's probably well within the tolerance of that meter. I doubt if the .8 degrees was even caused by the coil being removed and installed. Probably the machine moving slightly between tests would even do .8 degrees.
