Hi Bill- In about '91 I was with my dad the day he had his pacemaker implanted. Three months or so later I was down visiting him out in his shop with his '24 "T" roadster. As you know, the porcelain spark plug terminals from the coil box protrude through the firewall toward the engine. He said that a week earlier, he was running the engine with the hood open and had his left hand resting on the cowl when he reached across to the other side and accidentally laid his right wrist on one of the plug terminals, the jolt passing through his heart. It didn't affect his pacemaker and he lived another 16 years when cancer took him at age 88.
