Thanks for that, Irv.  I had been hoping that they were more resistant to
failure than others.  But, of course, nothing is that good!

    2) I had what I later determined were some horrible spikes getting into my
electrical system from a failing ignition wire. The old original cap, with a
spike holding the wire in place just sucks.  I replaced it with an MGB (oh the
horror!), and Magnecore-type wires and it has been fine for 3 years.



  Tony,

  Just a FYI. My Magnacor 8MM wires had 2 failures out of 6 after only 2
years. You might want to check them periodically for resistance.
