Original Message
I recently finished reading the book One Second After and just started the book Lights Out. Both are about life after an EMP event.
What interests me is the cars in the books. In one of the books, the only cars that ran were the antique cars.
In the other book, some cars in the 70's and 80's were able to be repaired with a few new parts, and the ones that did not need repair were disel, why is that?
My question is, I have a 1994 Jeep Cherokee. Does anyone know if there is a computer chip in this Jeep? How far back would I have to go in order go get an old car without a computer chip?
Would a car without any computer chips still run after EMP or would there be other parts that would be fried also? If so, what parts would need to be replaced? Anyone know?
Thanks!
