Remove distributor cap and inspect points. High points can be removed by placing a breaker point file between points
and letting them close against file under their normal spring pressure. Move file straight up and down, dressing both
points at the same time. If the points are pitted, they should be ground or replaced.
Crank engine, using wrench on starter shaft extension, until the breaker arm fibre block is on the highest point of the
cam, giving the points their maximum opening. If necessary to adjust, loosen lock nut "D" and turn screw "E" until the
gap is .020" (.50 mm.). Tighten lock nut.
Remove the spark plug from number one cylinder. Crank the engine slowly by hand until air is forced out through the
spark plug hole. Continue turning the engine slowly until the D.C. 1 and 6 mark is exactly in line with the pointer as
shown at "A."
