I was tempted to sell her a CDI, but thought better of it. I think
the platinum plugs work just fine either way, and in this case, I was
thinking that there was a slightly longer arc path on the insulator
and that this might hold off the fouling of the plugs that we had
been having all along.
In the end, however, I think we got all the real problems solved, so
any decent plugs would have worked just fine.
