All,

My first experience with the powers of a healthy coil was on someone else. I
thought he said to crank the bike..... honest!! Shot the guy across the room
:-)

Since then I have been a regular Ben Franklin....not only with bikes but
also with house current. I can't say which leaves a saltier taste in my
mouth.

I've also have learned that it is better to let the headers cool down before
touching them :-)

Have fun Y'all....Ian

 Ouch! Did that while setting my idle one day. Grabbed the unplugged plug
wire while the motor was still going a bit. I have a very healthy coil
too!
 A week later, I inavertently laid my hand on top of my tiller motor
(right
 on the spark plug unfortunately) to brace it while cranking it. ZZZZZAP!!!
It has a healthy magneto, btw.
Ciao!
