In my experience, after gapping a new set of points the dwell is generally
within the acceptable range for "worn points", but outside of the
acceptable range for new points, according to the Bentley.  Generally
takes a bit of fiddling to get it just right.  However, I can't imagine
the points are off enough to cause running problems if you just gapped
them.
