25 Year old ignition system
Had a bit of a hesitation, car has 149k miles. Nothing with the ignition system had been changed. Plugs and cap were very worn, but unremarkable. The rotors were cracked and rather crispy.
Upside: I was able to pull the caps and rotors with removing anything extra, with the exception of loosing the serpentine belt.
Down side: I dropped a distributor bolt into the timing cover. I'll get a flexy magnet tomorrow to see if I can fish it out.

How hard was it taking the spark plugs out? I recently pulled the original plugs out of a 169k mile BMW X5 and it was one of the scarier things I've done on a car. Slow and careful and everything was good.
Amazing how well the original stuff can run if it has to, sometimes.
