Just experienced the same thing after installing new points on a rebuild project. A quick touch with a points file and all was well. Now carrying a small piece of emery cloth in with the spare set of points as a reminder. A friend of mine discussed with his father, a small engine mechanic, who indicated this is very common w/new points.... Appears there is a fine coating on them when new, possibly to prevent oxidation?!? |
I was taught that that was what business cards were for.....run a thin
strip of one through your points regularly.
