DING!!! DING!!! DING!!! DING!!! DING!!!!!!! Bill, you are making points here. I agree I tighten mine. You've just got to have the correct torque at the elbow and use common sense. You can imagine how quick a Mallory or any other modern style distributor would slip out of time if the set screw wasn't given some tension. Not trying to be a disagreeable old poot and make anybody mad. I know where you are coming from. Thanks for your input.
