Default Re: miss(tery) solved

"I had another dizzy on the shelf so touched up the points, set the gap and voila, she runs smooth and pulls hard through all the gears and any amount of push on the go pedal!"

Amazing.

We have been told over and over that the only way to time a flathead distributor is on a Sun, Allen, or Heyer strober machine.

Are you saying that you actually set the gaps with feeler gauges ... and it runs well?

How can it be ... better than your professionally rebuilt and machine timed distributor?

(Good work.)
