Distributer cap

Just a simple Question... is it ok to clean the contact points on a dizzy cap with 220 (or similar) sand paper? I have never actually had to clean one before, always just replaced them, but now i just have to make do for a little bit... its just my engine is running a little rough and it's the only thing i can put it down to coz the points are a little coroded. Thanks.

It should be alright. Just don't go crazy with the sanding.

Might also want to clean up the rotor.

By the way your signature pic is to wide. Max is 500 x 150.
