Adjusting the points

With points cover off,slowly bring engine to the highest point on the points cam.Its easiest to do this with the spark plug out,and slowly spin the engine with the kick start. Once you get it to the highest point on the points cam,the points should be "open". Insert feeler gauges untill you find the correct one...(it should have slight resistance). The check what the recommended gap is for that model. After finding the recomended gap,use the feeler gauge that matches the recomended gap,and isert between the points. There should be two screws,one on each end of the points. Loosen those two screws,and the body of the point will move,one way to "open": the gap,the other to "close" the gap. With feeler gauge between the points contact,close untill you feel slight resistance when moving the gauge back and forth,and tighten the set screws on the points body.
