ABSTRACT:
A distributor breaker contact spacing mechanism for a distributor of an internal combustion engine. The mechanism includes an oscillatory breaker arm having a contact point and a cam follower, the cam follower being resiliently urged toward an engine-operated cam. Rotation of the cam provides a reciprocatory movement to the breaker arm thereby sequentially making and breaking the contact between the movable contact and a stationary contact. A spacing block is mounted upon the movable arm and accommodates the establishment of the appropriate gap distance that the movable contact point moves away from the stationary contact point in response to rotation of the cam. The spacing block substantially eliminates adjustment of the spacing gap between the contact points upon installation of the breaker point assembly in the distributor.
