    Chrysler 6 HP points

    If I understand you correctly, your saying your use to seeing the rub place on the points stay in contact with the cam. I would say that should not happen, reason being is if it did then anything (spec of dirt or crud) could open the points and cause a misfire Did I understand correctly?
