I borrowed a dwell meter from someone at work and I thought there would be instructions with it. I don't want to fry this thing and have to buy it. Any help?

The slight missing is because you are on the high side of the dwell limit. If you back it up a tad it will really run sweet.
So how do you do that? PITA until you get good at it. get the plastic piece of the ponts which rides on the lobes to the highest point in lift. You must be able to recreate this over and over. Now figure out where you last seen your feeler gage and measure what the gap of the points contact is. Now loosen the points hold down screw and close the points gap by a .001 from what you just measured. put it all back together crank it up and measure dwell. should have moved a degree or two. If you moved it too much well, you shouldn't have listened to me. Just left the damn thing alone and drive it. |
