[QUOTE="Monkeypants, post: 4863, member: 2708"] Lube was not the problem, the points came with a new felt which I soaked in lube and installed. I pretty much grew up with breaker point ignition on everything so I'm somewhat familiar with it but I do not recall point heels wearing this quickly. I have heard some of the members with series D ignition complain of this same problem with replacement points. The anwer for that setup seems to be in locating NOS points with tufnol heels. The NOS Lucas 10CA points are plastic, but it is obviously the right kind of plastic for the job. [/QUOTE]
