I've been in a lot of Russian cars old and new, Volga's, Zhiguli's, Lada's and Moskvich's. And I know what you mean about the old Russian taxis - grinding brakes, no pads, just metal rivets to disks or drums. And as you say, you could smell the gas, and hear them hit and miss. That's the reason I thought an inexpensive ignition system would be good, it would reduce maintenance and make older cars more reliable and fuel efficient. It is easy to install and costs less than a tank of gas. But what I had failed to realize is that if the guy never changes points anyway, he's not likely to see a benefit in improving them.
