As long as the wires are in good shape and connected to the spark plugs, it should be hard to be hurt. OTOH, I always pause at this point, too. The other thing to keep in mind that it's not actually the spark that will hurt you; it's what happens when you uncontrollably jerk your hand/arm back. So watch for sharp things that you could get snagged on if things go wrong and stay away from those bad situations. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
