Interesting!  Does the plug gap change if you have electronic ignition fitted?

I ask because I have fitted a "Sparkrite" type system that still uses 
the points but it's actually transistors that switch the high 
voltage. This works fine but as I only had fitting instructions and 
no setup instructions I'd be interested to know if I should be 
changing anything. But as I can turn off the electronic box and 
return to the normal setup I suspect changing the plug gap would not 
be benificial.
