Is there a possibility that when changing the points, a PO mislaid the original screw and fitted something that "fit"?
I would assume (I know!), that Bosch being German would be metric.
But my Volvo has imperial and metric threads, depending on the parts group.

The plate that the points sit on is removable afaik ,with two small screws.
Closer examination upon removal, would possibly reveal if it was cross threaded.

Mine with accuspark fitted..


Rotor arm removed for clarity.
