Something wrong with plug wires...

[RocketDaryl]

on my T-Bird. It doesn't have any! In my best Johnny Carson voice "I did not know that".

Yes, since I like you fellas and decided to hang around even though I no longer own a Rocket, the least you can do is talk T-Birds with me once in awhile.

****, I was just getting used to not having carburetors.

Since I'm too lazy to find out for myself, exactly how do the plugs fire without wires???

Wait, let me guess.....WIFI

Is it a diesel?

 

[RocketDaryl]

I haven't looked myself so not sure how Triumph did it. I found out another forum. It might be a diesel. I got 50.6 mpg on a 150 mile ride over to Apalachacola Friday.

Coil packs that connect direct to the plugs, just a guess.

 

[RocketDaryl]

I just checked on the other forum. Yes, the ignition coil sits directly on the plugs. That's also how most high peformance cars are now days.

Just about ALL motors are like that now.

 

[RocketDaryl]

Yeah, apparently that's the case because a guy on the other forum chimed in that his Kia Sportage was like that. I'll have to check my *make a vette quake in its boots* Chevy HHR (all 175 ponies) to see if it's like that.

I must admit having ridden several versions of the T-bird it is very impressive in certain configurations. Nice to see you Jamie, does the bike have 2 plugs per cylinder like the Rocket?
