Points? Distributor? What kind of museum piece are you driving? :-)

I knew it! You young modern things! At least I can fix my own car

Nope - I've heard of Ford, of course, but never heard of an XY model.

Oh, I know what points are - I'm older than you think. :-) I'm just suprised
that anyone's still driving a car that has 'em.
