points gap

My recollection is 18 thou (range 16-20 thou). I didn't use metric back then.
But can look up tonight if you don't have an answer by then.

Hi Wazza,
from memory dwell should be around 52 degrees.

Buy a workshop manual.

40 odd bucks for a manual,olcoolone,or ask people on a FORUM who may know off the top of their head.hmmm.
for the record...Im a mechanic,at work on an oil rig for 3 weeks.so just thought i'd try to get an answer before i get home.
have squeezed 290 km out of atank of gas around town but lately its dropped off a bit.set the new points by eye.maybe its tappets time again!
cheers to others helpful answers.

Wazza,
Got all the numbers in front of me now (Gregorys #511 manual for the 2F):
Firing Order 1-5-3-6-2-4
Spark Plug Gap 0.8mm (Conventional Ign) 1.0mm (Semitransistorised)
Contact Breaker Gap 0.45mm
Dwell angle 41 degrees
Ignition timing 7 deg btdc
Idle speed 650rpm
Valve Clearance (hot) Inlet 0.20mm; Exhaust 0.35mm.

thankyou phil,thats what i was after,cheers.was thinking after,that 50deg is not right for a 6.thats probably for the 4cyl bundera.
graeme ,thanks for your links.the second one just covered the plug gaps and firing order.cheers all the same!
