Morning Paul,

My dad was always messing around with old single cylinder petrol
engines, trying to make them work. I used to help him.

My main task was to hold onto the bare plug lead wire while he cranked
the engine over - to see if it was generating power!

I remember that lesson very well - I only did it once!

It - the lesson - came in very handy when I was a Honda Motorcycle
mechanic (and also as a Yamaha Outboard Motor Mechanic - they weren't
called engineers back then!) as I knew to avoid the business end of a
plug lead!

I think today's kids are far too molly-coddled! No spark in them. (Ha
ha!)  ;-)
