Yeah.... like Brew said, that bottom plug is old! Wow.

I'm pretty sure some of the later Fox Body's with a 2.3 also had the 4 plugs on the exhaust. Weird design!

yes it was, not one of fords better ideas, especially because you have to pull the plenum off to do the 'ignition' plugs

I know - I was just relating the odd mistake that causes things to blow up in your face. I stupidly used AC, and that meant BOTH gasses were ideally mixed. A spark would have been quite catastrophic in my case. I was "inventing."

Another error was that I did not realize that these gases, burned, do not produce a visible flame. It's all in pure IR. My idea required a visible flame. But that lead to another use for it. A spark error atop using AC could have ended me due to the volume.
