Thanks Robert, My goal today is to get it in the garage before the rain starts and do just what you said. The guy I purchased the car from said to check the dwell first. Maybe he has a reason for that. I know he said he rebuilt the distributor.
Do you know what to set the dwell at on a dual point distributor. This is a 65 commando engine which I think is stock and all original except for the dual exhaust. I just bought a dwell meter so now I'll move a few things to get it inside. Thanks again.
Tommy
