Distributor points screw.....

[Toolmanmike]

If mopar felt you don't need a dwell meter, why do they include dwell numbers in the factory service manual ?

I set points to the FSM spec with flat feeler gauge, start vehicle, check dwell, adjust if needed to correct dwell.

It's not hard.

This. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I won't ever back down from doing things right.

A dwell meter will show dwell variation also. Over 2 degrees it is usually a bent shaft. No other way unless you have a distributor machine.
