Hmm.  It looks like the DPO installed the wrong distributor on my car.
It slowly dawned on me today when I tried to change the points.  After
looking at a few parts catalogs I'm sure I have the 45D dizzy.  What
implications does this have?  The vacuum advance is wrong, for one.
Is this seriously affecting my performance?  At what point was the
vac advance changed to be maximum at idle?

Maybe this is why the vacuum advance was disconnected when I got it :P

I'm sure I can find a good used 25D somewhere.  I see it comes with
3 different caps; the original uses some sort of weird screw-in 
ignition wires?  Are the caps interchangable?  Are there any good
reasons to go with the push-in cap?

Always new suprises!
