Yes, they will fire. My main points about not using platinum or iridium on distributor systems, and in boats for that matter, is that their objective is longevity. They are not as conductive at...

Run the turnpike in Ohio, you'll have to go way south to bypass it on a decent road, most others are 2 lanes and you'll end up stuck behind some slow idiot. Do not speed on the turnpike, 77 is fine,...

Seems like there is a little more than just reversion going on here. That much water should hydro-lock the engine if it was only coming in through the exhaust. Sounds like there are a few issues....

I drop in at New Buffalo, the hardest part is driving through town to get to the ramp. Plenty of room around the ramp and I've never really had to wait in line. $12 for out of staters.
