Mallory YH, where to stick it, not at all clear on the concept

Bill Crowell said

I could sure use a picture of how to measure the centrifugal advance on my Mallory YH by using the red plastic sticks they give you in the Summit spring assortment kit, because I'm not sure I'm doing it right. I've searched the 'net, including the posts and tutorials on this site, but haven't found a picture yet. I know it's probably obvious, but then again I'm not too smart.

Anybody?

I hope I can explain this without pictures.

When you look at the sticks or keys, you’ll see they are narrow to wide. That part, the part that are different widths go into the slot and you adjust the tab until it snugly load the key and your done.

So the part of the key that sets the distance the advance mechanism travels sits in the slot long ways.

If that doesn’t help I’m heading to the shop and I can take some pictures if you need it.
