[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 26254, member: 456"] Quite right. Altering contact breaker gap will affect the quality of the spark but here we are talking about thous and if the ignition system is so near its limit that changing the dwell angle will seriously weaken the spark then it is time for a sort out. Consider that we have two, or perhaps one, cylinders. Coil ignition systems were used on Rover V 8 engines with a single coil and set of points. If they can do that then we do not even challenge them. [/QUOTE]
