[Spridgets] Dizzy Question - 25 D and Micro adjuster - Vacumn Advance

[James Gruber]

David,
 
There isa spring that the Micro Adjuster Nut has to keep tension on things. If
I loosned too much the spring could have jumped off. Time to pull the dizzy
and see what I find. Thnkas

James,
It is held in place by that micro-adjust nut. if it is sloppy, check
the points screws to make sure the plate moves freely. I believe there
should be a coil spring under that micro-adjust nut, although I cannot
see it in the Haynes or Bentley diagrams.
