    Remind me, what are we working on here again? What model motor and what part number points? Or tuneup kit was it? You shouldn’t be having this type of problems with OMC System Matched Parts or BRP stuff (same thing). All others beware! I keep about 50 sets in stock at all times of the most common (#172522) tuneup kit and have noticed no desenigrating of quality. These OEM points have been made in Turkey forever & still are as far as I can tell. I can’t remember the last time I had a bad condensor out of the box.
    I don’t have to file new points or bend them. Just wipe between them with a business card with a distillate & set them at about .022 with the new oiler wick provided in the kit. Easy/peesy! Keep the extra clips & keepers for when you let one fly and on to the next job.
