Arking Spark Damage

RE: Arking Spark Damage
am i reading correctly, the first post said the plugwire was removed from the plug and touched to the engine. the wire only and not through the plug? that was the problem. if you would have had the plug in the the wire and touched it to the engine it should have been fine. the plug would have arced and been grounded just like in the cylinder. so without the plug being used you fried the coil correct?

Haha, yeah I've always tested spark that way(seeing if it arks) but this is the key I think: don't ark it on the motor itself, use the frame! It was the Ignition coil, props for helping my with that!
Oh, and my buddy never held the plug lol but I have touched a spark plug wire to my skin and it doesnt hurt that bad! Just feels like one of those dog collars that makes them stop barking by electrocuting them!
Thanks! - jeff
