As a general rule all Lucas 12 volt points ignition sytems have a point gap of 24 to 26 thou. Spark plug gaps did not get larger until the advent of transistorised ignition systems when the higher firing voltages allowed a larger gap and hotter spark.........Paul.........

I've downloaded the workshop manual and the parts book off the S1

gap should be set at.

Mine is a spread bore 2.0l petrol.

Can anyone advise please.

Thanks
