http://www.volvopentastore.com/........ I did try this site, but it is closed and will not open for those that live out side the united states.
Thanks anyways !

If you or some one else in the States could open it and get back to me with a part number for points for a 1984 Volvo
AQ125a that will get me going.
.
Thanks

Volvo number is 243799. There are likely other manufacturer numbers that will work but that is a start.

Capacitor(Condensor) is 841262.

Went to Bumper to bumper today and they had a set.. just showed them my old set .
Lost my owners manual but my shop manual says .016 for point gap for a AQ125 a
Must have set over thousand points back in the day and Always used a rolled up $10. bill to clean them after setting them.
Tried it the other day with these new Canadian Bills,..... Not a good idea ,as I guess they are covered with some type of coating .Lost spark after that so I had to file them clean for it to start again .

Thanks for all those that applied

Find the spec for what the dwell angle is and use a dwell meter. The setting is pretty critical on these engines and you don't want to just go by gap.

Did set them with feeler gauges runs 100 %
Going to have to borrow a Dwell meter to see how close I got .
