Thinking about this, you're right that they were unreliable so people (we!) had to continuously adjust points, clean plugs and so on.  It's just not that complicated to do.  I s'pose they could rebuild dynamos, alternators, those dynamo control boxes and a few other things. 

Possibly they were fitting early electronic ignitions, my Dad remembered a friend having one fitted to his Mini that made it an almost guaranteed first time starter.
