I put the S dead center in the window, then go to the other side and open the points ever so slightly until the meter moves. I stop at that point. Rotate the engine until the meter just breaks and check the window. If the S is centered you are done. If it is still off a bit, I center it up in the window and go back and readjust the points. Don't worry about a feeler guage. Use the meter to determine the gap. Also you may want to pick up a new points push rod. Yours may be worn down some.
