Myron,

        Make sure that the pivot for the floating side of the points is still in
good shape.  It should be a small plastic 'spool' that the floating point pivots
on, and if this is broken or worn through, it will short the point gap.  Other 
than that, nothing comes to mind.

<snip>  I used a voltmeter on the points when they were 
installed and found that even when they were open, there was 
continuity (is that normal?) across the contacts.  <snip>
  Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
