Re-connect the terminal plate (13) to the end of the contact breaker spring,
position the contact set on the distributor base plate and highly tighten securing
screw (I I). Ensure that the contact breaker spring is firmly in its register on the
insulator, and set the contact gap.
Whenever a new contact set has been fitted, re-check the gap after the first
500 miles (800 km). During this period the heel of the contact will have bedded-
in and reduced the gap.
