Title: Points assembly advice please
Post by: RichardAB on 01 Aug, 2023, 08:39
Attached points assembly for B33 alt model. Please can anyone confirm this is correct assembly? Washer types/positions and the space between plastic 'top hat and brass strip to condenser. Thank you

Hi Richard

The lead to the condensor should go first then the top hat, but turn it around so that the small diameter sinks into the points spindle. This insulates the points spindle and the wire to the condensor from the post, which is ground. Then put the fibre washer, steel washer and nut.
