[T3] crazyest thing i have run into..

[Special (K)]

Hi All, I just had a really stupid thing happen to me.. my 65 6v square was chugging and i cked the points and they need replacement, a chunk was missing.
 So.. I planned to replace the cap (even though it could have been cleaned,) rotor, and points and condenser. My local Global, gives me the wrong parts from time to time since my old vw isnt in their computer ( year) but the store is close and it was gonna rain the next day so I wanted to get it fixed.
It was a quick ( or so i thought job,) but the points were the wrong ones right off the bat. 
Hurry back and exchange, darkness approached and this became a 2 week job. 
Rain work etc.Job done turn over no start. MMm.. So go back ck parts again, reattach condenser, then i figure maybe my coil took a dump ( it was blue) I get a new/used black coil and my 10 yr old daughter installed that ( i have pictures too and prove my boyfreind double cked her)
Still no start. power going into coil but not out so I called my friend, and he came down to ck my work. He came to same conclusion. Fine. No power out. Wait he says WTF?? Who messed with that screw?? I go to the back of the car and he says DID YOU move that screw?? The one he was speaking of was the one that holds the vacum advance to the dizzy.I did not touch it nor did anyone else since I have owned the car. (Owner #3) It is now BARELY touching the points enough to make them short.The NEW BOSH points I assume are the right ones. Has anyone ever ran into this?? Please let me know??
I guess I have what is called the 010 stock dizzy..Needless to say screw was removed and ground down ever so slightly and Lucy is running.. WHAT THE HECK?? Peace and Love to all Kelleigh
