Distributor Points

Post by Bob_C »

I dont have the manual for the distributor for the 38A1. Was wondering if anyone could give me the distance the points and the lobe has to be for adjustment.

Thanks!

Bob,
That info is in both Operation and maintenance TMs 9-8014 page 175 Para b. Breaker point set and in 804A page 156 para a. With the cam follower on one of the 4 high points of the cam adjust the point gap to .020".
