Not quite correct. If you haven't loosened the screws holding your points baseplate (the round piece that holds the point sets), then you shouldn't have changed your original timing.
With that being said, there is always a little differentiation between point sets. It's worthwhile to check the static timing on the point set after installing them. Once the static timing is set, then you can put the dwell meter on and adjust the dynamic timing.
This is assuming, of course, that you get good spark after putting on the new points. If the new points don't fix the problem, then we'll have to look elsewhere in the chain for the problem.
I'm hoping for updates to follow.
