Thanks, Steve | | |

#92244 06/29/2005 6:26 PM | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I'm running two Pertronix units in my trucks(a 235 in my '37, and a 261 in my '59). I opened the plug gap up .005" to .040" as Pertronix recommended and I think it helped a little. May be a placebo effect though. | | |
