And also, I had no idea cars doesn't have distributor caps anymore.
Yep. Haven't had a distributor since 2000 and that was my wife's mini. My current car doesn't even have spark plugs  i dont miss distributors.. use to keep a can of WD40 (or wire dryer) in the vehicles to spray the coil, cap and plug wires when they got wet. Awesome... you, unlike ALL the rest of us, were using W(ater)D(isplacer)-40 for it's actual original intended purpose! |

So how does it work nowadays then?
Typically the points are done solid state and you just have a coil per plug or cylinder (coil packs). So no need to be switching high voltages around and no moving parts. Fans are no longer driven with fan belts either No more shoving cardboard down the front of the radiator on cold days. Jesus How old are you! When were car Thermostats stock? |

Fans are no longer driven with fan belts either No more shoving cardboard down the front of the radiator on cold days. Sounds great, wish that could be retrofitted to my car. I modded my coils on my bike to coil sticks (made up a simple wiring harness) so I don't see why you couldn't use an aftermarket ecu if you really wanted to. I'm seriously thinking of losing the carbs but there are no bolt on solutions i've found so its alot of custom work. I actually did the cardboard thing last winter, I have trouble getting the car really hot. One of the reasons I'm changing the fluid, I'm gonna flush the heatpack.
Just change out the thermostat to a higher temp one. |

I do not have enough fiat to buy more coin for the amazing pump you are predicting You do not need "a lot." Just 80x with whatever you do happen to have, and you should be "golden" just like ur lil name.  You will (or at least should in theory) thank me later. |

Just change out the thermostat to a higher temp one. Haven't read the previous posts to this, but couldn't resist a discussion of ignition mods. I used to mod my old points vehicles with electronic ignitions, often of my own design. My favorite hack was to make a cascode circuit by putting an IGBT between the points and the coil, which relieves the points of the high voltage burden and passes the high voltage switching load to the transistor (points still carry the current in series with the IGBT). Simplest circuit possible. I've done complicated stuff like building a hall effect ignition with magnets on a spinning disk in the breaker (the cannister that contains the points) of an old panhead. Good memories. Now I drive a modern car and do abstract stuff like modeling an oscillator based on bitcoin's 100 week geometric mean. Life goes on. |
