Subject: Stratus-List: spark plugs and rain


Hi guys,

I recently flew thru some rain showers and was wondering if there was 
any prospect of fouling the plugs electrically.  Nothing was noticed, 
but the rain that washed over my canopy and wings got rid of a lot of 
bugs.  Is there any reason to worry about a light rain?

I hope not - I've been thru some rain before and never had a problem.

You generally have to get a lot of water in the ignition system to get  
a failure. It helps to have a good seal on all the ignition wire boots.
