Hey Guys,

This is an Austin Healey Engine. With the stupendous accuracy of feeler 
gauges 18thou +/- 0.2" coupled with brain fade, fueled by a beer or two, 
if there's a gap, it works. Setting them hot means you burn your 
fingers. Setting them cold means the oil is harder to clean up when you 
crank the engine and forgot to disconnect the coil.

Fred
