Now, here are the pestering nagging questions: Why would
relatively new plugs fail when given the total load? Why would both plugs
fail at the same
time? Is there something going on that is being
overlooked? Has anybody
else ever seen this happen? (Ed/ Eddie,
are you there?) Did this happen because I'm so close to 2R4?
Hey, don't try to lay
this on me :-) (2R4 is my home
airport)
The real test would be
to put the plugs back in, and see if it still fails. I would be worried
that there was a broken wire going to the coil. I'm not familiar with the
second gen coils, but I assume there's power, or ground, or something that can
take out the coil. I would run it briefly as is, and make sure it's still
OK, then put the plugs you just took out in, and run it again. I would
make every effort not to touch any wiring other than the plug wires. If
that's bad, I would put the new plugs back in, and try again, still without
touching any other wires. That test will give you a pretty good idea
if it's really the plugs.
It does seem hard to
believe that the plugs could both be bad, unless maybe they missed you, and
died of loneliness :-)
BTW, I know you're short
on time in town, and I think I have one new set of plugs at the hanger. If
you need them, let me know and we can meet
somewhere.
Good
luck,
Rusty
