On my '59 LeBaron with dual points I kept running in to that problem as
well. Every 500 miles the points were out of adjustment enough to make
the car idle poorly. Also if I didn't drive the car regularly the
points would corrode and the car wouldn't start. I hated those dual
points and replaced them with a mopar performance system. Haven't had a
single problem since.
Now on my '68 Imperial Newport (Rare factory option I think) I just
replaced the points after a year and a half only because I felt guilty
and found them to be in as new condition. The cars sit right beside
each other in the garage so I can't imagine why the difference between
the two.
