Re: Brass Feeler Gauge- was '64 Sport Fury won't start.

Don,
The brass is used because it is nonmagnetic and thus will not interfere with feeling the drag on the gauge. I checked a 1976 FSM and a Chiltons, they both state to use a .008 gauge to set clearance and a .010 should not fit (no forcing).

Brass feeler gauge.

I know you are supposed to use brass but why? Does it have to do with conductivity of steel and no conductivity for brass?  Just curious.

Be sure to use brass feeler gauge.  Other will kill the relucter.

Check the gap on the relucter and the pick up coil. Should be 17 thou.
