Default Dwell ???

Teaching the grandson " DWELL" he has been adjusting early ford dwell on the machine all week. Block one set of points and adjust dwell then unblock and adjust the other set. Check the advance at ilde and 2500 , let run for a few minutes (listen to the sound it makes ) recheck dwell. i drew distributor on towel ,cam pic showing and explaining dwell is the time the points are closed in degrees using a 45 degree cam ... Crabs, early helmets and late helmets ,Next lesson is how the dual points overlap for total dwell and why..More drawings on towel to come. I think he may be getting it ????????
