    i have done it a few times on my mustang when i burned a plug wire. it hurts when it hits you and then you hurt when you hit something else,thats why it's a multiple strike ignition

    Yeah, that's what sucks about it. If you have a hot enough coil you don't even have to be grounded to take a hit. It will find a way and it will inevitably be through an ear, nose, eyeball or crotch.



    Of course. :tiphat:

    LOL. WE used to do the condensor thing but leave them in other classes for unsuspecting students.
