  Ah, Justin you forgot the most important instructions:

    1. Consult position of the moon (best if waxing)
    2. Kill a live chicken on engine valve cover
    3. Walk 3x clockwise around the car chanting:
        "Merciful Lucas bless the hand of your most unworthy servant"
    4. Check for the smell of sulphur & brimstone, if you can't smell
       it, proceed.

  Seriously though, I think wiring should be done at "one sitting". To
  leave off and come back at another time may prove cofusing
