Auto Lite points with separate spring

[Jerry Roberts]

Her are photos of the Auto Lite points with the separate spring . It is not so obvious with the parts just out of the box as to how they go together but with the photo it is plain to see .

I am aware that this question may be naive, but will ask anyway. What does the extra spring accomplish?

It isn't extra: It is the spring as the flexible conductor is just that, a conductor not a spring.
