Jeff you may be on to something. My distributor is quite old and does not have the plastic insulator you are talking about. Where the wires connect, including the "u" shaped metal connector of the points, to the hold down screw on the terminal all are isolated from the baseplate by an insulated pad. But looking at the points, the faces look burned. I will try to post a picture tomorrow. I may have inadvertenly installed the points in such a way that I managed to ground them out and burn them up.
