The present invention relates to producing a unifor of spark-plugs fori gines.

between'thepoints ofk the spark-plu be otV a certaini'vidth to produce effective ignition.
The object of my inven a tool by which the points ot sp` can be adjusted to 'have a uniform gap between them in a convenient manner and by a single operation of the will be fully understood from the following description when taken The invention in connection with t ings, and the novel out and clear pointed at the close of this specification. In said drawings: Fig. 1 shows a spark-plug point tool embodying my inveii the tool being open;
Fig. 2 is the same as F oi the tool closed Fig. 8 is a side view ot' Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 an en jaws also taken on Fig. 2;
F ig. 5 shows the opposite side Figs. 1 and 2, the con'- from that shown struction being slightly -modiiedg Fig. 6 is a section of the arrow on the lin Fig. 7 shows t Referring now taken in the a. tool for explosive points of This gap gs should the .most

value, especially to automobile manufactur-k ers-and repair nien `to whom spark plugs are it'reoniently shipped in bulk rather thanV in individual cartons which would protect the points. Although the ypoints of the spark plugs may have been adjusted originally, it is. therefore, necessary that they be again adjusted before being put in use. My invention provides a convenientand accurate toolr for producing this necessary as well as in that previously dei 23 and 24 of the Y adjustment i ie quickly thereby saving considerable time and labor..
lVhat I claim as my invention is:
l. A tool for adjusting the points of spark plugs, comprising a pair of movable jaws and an externally supported spacer member consisting ol angular-ly disposed plaies, one
of which plates extends between said jawsand is adapted to receive the points of a 'spark plug on opposite sides thereof to provide a predetermined gap between said points when said jaws are moved toward one another.
2. A tool for adjusting the points of spark plugs, comprising a pair of pivoed jaws, arms for moving said toward one another, and aspaeer member comprising angularly disposed plates, one ot' which is positioned between said aws and supported eX- ternally thereof, and adapted to receive the points of a spark plugl on opposite sides thereof to provide a predeermined gap between said points when said jaws are moved toward one another.
3. Pliers for adjusting the points of spark plugs, comprising two members pivoted t- .gether to provide cooperating jaws on one plugs, comprising a pair of pivoted jaws,
arms for moving said jaws toward one another, a plate on one side of the jaws, and a spacer member on said plate and extending between the jaws to permit'the4 points of a spark plug to be positioned on'opposite sides thereof to provide a gap of predetermined amount between said points when said jaws are pressed together.
ln testimony whereof I affix my signature.
