If one attempts to take off the distributor cap off the top of the Proform distributor gear, you will perceive a condenser and the so-called points. The condenser is a plain capacitor that can stock up a tiny quantity of current. When the points begin to open, the current pouring throughout the points tries to find a substitute path to ground on. If it lacks the presence of a condenser, it would attempt to jump crossways the gap of the points while they begin to unfasten. If in case this was permitted to occur, the points would burn out quickly, and because of this, you'd hear stuff like massive static on the vehicle radio. To put a stop to this, the condenser serves as a path to ground. By the time the condenser is full, the points are then too far separate for the small quantity of voltage to leap crossways to a gap.

Because the leaping crossways to the opening points is removed, the points last a long time and static from the radio is eliminated. On several cars, points are fine-tuned with the engine off and the distributor cap taken away. The technician will loosen the preset point then move it to some extent, then re-tighten in the proper position by means of a feeler gauge to calculate the gap. On other cars, there's the presence of a window in the distributor in which a technician can pop in a device and fine tune the distributor points by means if a dwell meter as the engine is in operation. Distributor points last about 10,000 miles before replacement. This can be done in the course of a customary tune-up. For the duration of the tune-up, the distributor points, spark plugs, and condenser are replaced, the carburetor is regulated, and finally, the timing is put into place.
