points are nothing to be afraid of. they need to be filed/cleaned where the points come together. and they need to have a gap of a certain spec at their most open point in the rotation of the engine. usually just a matchbook cover they say. they have to open and close as the engine rotates. and have good clean connection when they do close.

there is some fine tuning one can do from there. but an engine should run with the points cleaned and set like above.

I have gotten many a VW engine running great. again by just a quick filing of the points. just think of them having a bad connection. usually after someone has been messing with the carb trying to get the engine to run smooth.
