				Shorted out spark plugs
			  Here is a new one, at least for me. I was helping a friend work on his CB360 Motorcycle today. It would not start so I pulled a plug and checked for spark. No spark off the electrode but plenty off the body of the plug. New plugs, a few beers, and it fired right up. | ||

			That's a great old m/c.......It will run forever. I put many thousands of miles on a CB350 in college. Engine had a redline of 10,500. At 70, it was spinning 7,000 RPM.
