So, I felt a small missfire. This is what i found. Now i have seen many things in side a motor, broken bolts bent rods pice of gasket. You know the normal stuff. But how in the hell did this get in my coil?

A larvae that crawled up then hatched within the spring?

Adds a whole new meaning to having a "bug" in the electrical system.

They say "Don't mess with Texas", I guess that also means the bugs, but that bug is a whole other level of the saying.

I am curious about how it managed to get itself in there, and even more curious as to why it is not crispy.

Oh its a crispy critter, as soon as I started to remove the critter it just crumbled.
