problem with dual point no spark

I moved them all one spot before i got back to this post and was almost at firewall. Moved them all back one again and was good with enough space to hit the bolt to tighten the lockdown. I could not get continuity when the points were "closed" fiddled with them some more and noticed they were not touching. I adjusted one set until i got continuity then put paper in that pair and then adjusted the other set again until i did. It is running again. It seems to be running ok i will check my timing again and go for a spin today to see.
