How do you set outboard points gap?

To set the outboard points gap on a marine engine, first ensure the engine is off and cool. Rotate the engine to the appropriate position (usually top dead center) to expose the points. Use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the points, adjusting it to the manufacturer's specified measurement by loosening the mounting screw and repositioning the points. Once set, tighten the screw and recheck the gap to ensure it remains consistent.
