Help so close to fire the engine

Are you talking about the pickup in the distributor? If so, the gap is adjustable. You need a brass feeler gauge to do it so you don't get confused by the pull of the magnet. Don't know what the spec is on the gap though. Maybe around .016" to .018"?


In my Factory 1978 Chrysler/Plymouth/Dodge service manual it says set it @ .006" then recheck it and it could be as loose as .008" but not bigger then .008"
