Re: Point gap.
CCKW is another story, the Distributor is DELCO and the correct Contact Gap is 0.018"-0.024".

Re: Point gap.
New CCKW Contact Points, 0.018" to 0.024". This is what the CCKW TM lists.
My CCKW runs excellent using this factory specification no matter the grade of gasoline.
I try to practice what I preach and maintain two M-37's, an M-38A1, a CCKW and MB according to the Army TM's just like the army does.
Once you get your MV in 100 % Military running condition, you will not suffer many of the Sundry problems that many MV's experience.
