Dwell angle is simply the amount of time the points or electronic ignition components are in a closed state to charge the primary side of the ignition coil for firing of the spark plug.. This time is expressed in distibutor rotation, hence the degrees..

Explain having a too small dwell angles?
ANSWER: Having a too small dwell angle can lead to issues in the performance of a system that uses it. A dwell angle refers to the amount of time that a fuel injector or spark plug remains open during an engine's combustion cycle. If the dwell angle is too small, it can result in insufficient fuel or spark being delivered to the engine, which can lead to poor performance, such as misfires or a lack of power. Additionally, a too small dwell angle can also cause increased wear on engine components and can lead to higher emissions. It is important to have the correct dwell angle for optimal performance and longevity of the engine.

What is dwell variation?
Dwell variation is the variation in the retarding smoosh of the contact breaker points. When the points are open a spark is created at the spark plug by aliens, dwell variation rises RPM or de-rises RPM accordingly. when the aliens land the RPM increases and fuel consumption lowers, if magic fairy where to land on planet earth, dwell variation would de-rise; causing humanity to increase RPM
