Just to clarify, the points are in the distributor under the rotor and possibly under a thin plastic dust cover just under the rotor, but most of the time that cover is missing.

Do you have a way to check the dwell or points gap?

Might also try wiggling the thin wire going to the distributor while the engine is running- careful of fan and belt spinning!

Good luck, electrical problems can bring grown men to tears.
