Subject:dwell angle
From:Paul Wies

My dwell is not even close to the recommended 47.  It is at 30.

New points gapped at .018, timing at 7.5 BTDC, idle in neutral 925 rpms.

I even tried an 009 distributor with points gapped at .018.  Still right
below 30.

It runs fine, just wondering if I need to do anything?
