dropped screw
I was changing the points and condensor on my 312 engine. I dropped the screw that holds down the condensor. Does any one know the screw size for this?

Thanks

Jerry

Thanks for the info. I don't think it dropped on distributor. I looked carefully. I thought I heard it drop but I can't find it.
Thanks
Jerry
