Is there a secret here that requires my knowing the password? I'm looking in the my VL "book of knowledge" and it states that I should replace the circuit breaker points and condenser if I can find them. What is them, and if them is not available what can be substituted?

VL Points and Condenser ???

VL points and condenser are under the oil pump cover. That's down by the rear break lever. Remove the cover, two or three screws depending on VL year, and under there is a circular cover that contains the points and condenser. If you look at the picture that I posted under 'Early VL Oil Pump' you can see that cover on the left side of that picture.

Harley Parts catalogs are wonderful things. They're "all" reprinted. But before WWII the photos are out-of-scale & incomplete, but post WWII, the books are full of scale, blow-up drawings, which is where I found the 1930-1948 points sets and condensers.Last edited by Sargehere; 05-04-2012, 10:22 PM.

I notice that the repop point set is suspect. I put in a 32658-30 set and noticed an additional gap of about .043, so I put the old 1569-30A points back in. I'm still looking for a 1569-30A set
