plug gap

[Jacob Kramer]

I have recently installed a pertronix 1247xt Electronic ignition on my 47 2N. I was wondering what to gap the spark plugs at. Thanks

front mount = .015
side mount = .025
Same as before, unless the round can adapter is used. Then I don't know.

Plug gap is .025 on all. Points gap on regular distributors is as below.

Yeah, your right. I had a brain f*rt. What makes me mad, I looked in the manual before I typed. By the time I pulled the manual out and started looking, I had points in mind. I should know better than give electrical advice. (%^)
