The positive (-}) terminal is grounded. ignition.—Breaker contacts should separate .0!8 inch. They are made of tungsten. They will operate properly even though very irregular, due to the fact that the rough surfaces fit each other perfectly. Should they become badly burned or pitted, affecting the igni- tion, remove and resurface them by drawing across a piece of fine emery cloth laid on a flat surface, as on the bed of a drill press, finishing on a very hard oil stone. Clean all oil from contacts before again putting into service. Timing.—Breaker contacts should separate when flywheel marking
