My Haynes reads:
Standard distributor gap is 0.014".
Distributor part #169 007 the gap is 0.016".
These are for the 530i. I guess there are two distributors for that car??

This is the Haynes for the 528i and the 530i. 1975 thru 1980.
The cover is green & it has an E12 on the cover. Page #82.
Sorry to be so late.
Good luck,,,,Greg
