Jim,<br /><br />You have four posts asking the same question. That is very confusing. If you are impatient, just reply to youraelf. That will move your post to the top.

Jim, <br />I don't know what the gap should be exactly, but if you set it up with the dwell in the 30-32 range you should be okay.<br />justin@sterndrive.cc<br />www.sterndrive.cc

Good tip on the dwell. If you do not have a dwell meter, usually .020" (twenty thousandths) will get you running.

My volvo book shows the point gap at .016 for the AQ125B,131A,145B,151A. Hope that helps.
