Last night I replaced the points on my 87, 3.7L, 165hp, 224CI straight 4 motor. I never set the points before and I looking for some advice on setting the gap. I was unable to get the engine running.<br /><br />I set the gap bye turning the engine so that the points were on the high side of the disturber lobe and set the gap to about .020. I also made sure that the points were touching on the low side of the lobe. I assume there is a tolerance for that gap. Some advice would help.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Shawn
