Pick-Up Coil: Adjustments

Fig. 5 Rotor cam retaining screws. Solid state electronic ignition distributor:






The air gap must be adjusted after the sensor coil has been replaced.

1. Loosen screws, Fig. 5, then place feeler gauge between tip of sensor coil and rotor cam.
2. Adjust coil base at screw (6) until coil tip contacts feeler gauge.
3. Tighten both screws, then check for air gap clearance of .012-.024 inch (.3-.N mm) at all rotor cams. If proper adjustment cannot be obtained at any cam rotor, repair or replace distributor as necessary.
