Very true but who carries a book of matches with them anymore. If you're driving a Mopar with points I'd just put a feeler gauge in the glove box next to the spare ballast resistor.
I still run them in my 66 dual point. As few miles as I drive every year, a set lasts me years.Heck, who uses points on street nowadays anyways? My fart can neighbor had no idea what a distributor was used for!
one of mine. I got a box of NOS mopar points and some NOS condensers from Halifaxhops so I should set for life.3 out of 5 cars I run still have points because I hate being stranded! For the other two, there's a spare ECU in the glove box and the tools to swap it out.
