Of course.....it also required CONSTANT "fixing" and never ran as well as an electronic ignition that rarely if ever fails! FWIW, all of my restored "classics" that I drive have "Petronix" electronic replacement ignitions....the 66 Buick 425 Wildcat has an MSD with a custom-programed advance curve (that big old Nailhead just LOVES it!).....they just run better, longer, with NO futzing! Besides Ken....if you buy the software and a suitable cable, a laptop will scan your car and tell you EXACTLY what's wrong with it...then a well-trained monkey can fix it!Yes, I remember breaker point ignition, and I remember it could be fixed without having to spend a fortune or involving technicians with scanalyzers.
I told you Ken....I just can't stand not knowing how stuff works! Nobody works on my cars but me....and I don't "spend a fortune"! Knowledge is power!
HARDLY the same thing.....not even close. This is a disingenuous statement and you know it!I also see the forces of change working to revise the constitution, and it is my wish that they do not succeed.
Your call! Your choice! And I'll keep my opinion of your position to myself ("E pur si muove!").Change does not in every instance mean progress. If that makes me a Dodo, so be it.
