I have a 1979 6HP troybuilt tiller. I lost the owners manual and I need to know how to change the points. Thanks for your help.
The engine type is key here. For example if you have a tecumseh engine you will need the instructioins for that and if you have a Kohler engine the instructions will be different.
I have a 1979 TroyBuilt tiller too. Justaskjoe is correct regarding the engine.
I bet you have a tecumseh engin. The points, etc. are under the flywheel. You need a flywheel puller. Once you have the flywheel off, it's all there. Points gap is .020 and fyi the spark plug gap is .030
You can find all the parts here: http://www.partstree.com/parts/
Remember the parts for the tiller are not gotten from the same supplier as for the engine.
