Hi Bob - With an ignition/points problem,would you lose the entire side/6 cyls (distributor) at once and not just half of one side/3 cylinders, if you have a problem with one of the set of points? Thanks for the reply - trying my best to follow you closely.

Let"s remember that these are really only two sets of points, with the second set in each pair used to extend the dwell period. The distributor works as two sets of six cylinders, and usually you will lose half due to problems in the distributor. Cheers, Bob
