one must keep in mind that caps and rotors are still subject to the same wear and need to be replaced from time to time.
Good recommendation, but I'd add spark plugs and wires.
These days, when anyone asks for help on an engine tuning problem, I refuse to touch it until it has all-new ignition components - points, condensor, rotor, cap, wires and plugs.
One owner got indignant about the cost, saying, "I just replaced those not long ago." but I didn't see new parts. When pressed for the date, he finally admitted they were more than ten years old. "Guess I didn't realize how much time had passed."
