My question is how do I install it so the stationary point on the spring steel connector does not slide up the shaft? The points I have installed in the past came with both parts attached and installed togeather. Top section fits loosly and as soon as I try to start the engine it rides up.

I've only seen the type of contact set you are describing for my car, a '36 Stadard Last edited by J Franklin; 07/23/23 02:06 AM. J Franklin
