NOTE: Vented Points – We will supply vented points as long as we can, but supply is becoming inconsistent.

Tube of Grease: Special high temperature grease. Keeps cam lubricated without melting and getting on points. A must for a good tune-up, especially with heat in a Cor vair

engine compartment. One tube is good for over 40 sets of points. C54A 2 oz.

Have an Intermittent "miss" in your Corvair?

Check the point wires. Old insulation can crack and cause loss of spark power when it happens to short out.
