I have had one throw it off at idle.......Seriously, here in the SOUTH, they did not throw them as bad. Must be the humidity.

thnx Marlin that brought back memories,,Dad liked them, we had a real nice Turbo car and a beater driver for buzzing around in...anytime Dad would get on it, we all looked over to see the red Gen light come on,*&amp;^%$# belt...coast over to the shoulder, Dad had it down, he would get it close and yell for me to bump the ign a little and we were off again in a minute or less...I dont think that car ever had a Ign key in it either he left it in some position and it just turned on, those were the day's...box of cracker jacks and a drive
