Those trigger points are expensive and I do have a few distributor bodies.

Some mechanics told me that they used a cutaway distributor. But I don't have one I want to destroy - It's my spare
I think it can be done with a jig - may be easier than trying to work through a hole?
But what it comes down to, is that the points
can be adjusted by bending the tabs in the picture below along the yellow line. But just how much and how to get them even from side to side is what I have been thinking about.
It seems to me that the only way to test if they are right, is to measure the angle that each set closes for - should be in 100 deg range, I would think.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that some of the old D-Jet testers may have had this test function built in. Sort of like a dwell meter.
