same circuit as the 4.5 with the ignition module and two balasts. One is bypassed by the starter. The gap is supposed to be pretty tight, the thickness of a paper match give or take.
Remember, once you change the point gap, you've also moved the ignition firing point, so you have to retime the engine. A good reference point on most mercedes is spark right at TDC when the starter is turning the motor (about 200 rpm). But, that's just to get the car running. Adjust it according to the book after that.
If you don't have the book, invest the 30$ in the CD. It's the best investment you can make for the care and upkeep of a mercedes.
