    Wow! Thank you for all the good info!!
    Aftr Crosbys response, I decided to replace the old points I took off and use the Timing tool again and TA DA! It now lines up! The points I bought off of ebay were either wrong ones or just crap. The rubbing foot was definitely bigger.
    I would not have thought of this! I was starting to think I was losing my mind in some fashion(which I probably am BTW)
    Thank you again.

    I will now go out to run it and update…..
