[T3] Points ?


I normally run Pertronix Electronic Ingition, but in troubleshooting a
problem recently I went back to a the stock points.  I determined what the
other problem (see next email) but ran out of time and left the orginal
points in.  My mother-than-law brought me the car this weekend and said it
wouldn't accelerate.  Well it was because the points had ridden up the shaft
and were no longer making square contant with one another.  And now the
nylon rider was wron funny and they wre trash.  So, when did the points stop
coming with a collar at the top to prevent this ride up?  I went to my
spares collection and both of my spares (not Bosch, can't remember why I
accepted anything else) were free to ride up also.  I found an old set in my
junk pile and they have a collar so they don't ride up.  So when did they
start cheaping out?  Has anyone else seen this?
