Laser solution to damp spark plugs
25th April 2011
It is a problem most drivers have encountered on a wet morning, when they turn the ignition key only to be met with the fruitless whine of the starter motor as damp spark plugs fail to ignite the fuel.
But the end of the spark plug could be in sight, after scientists designed a laser which can start combustion engines.
We have the technology … or will, soon.

Who has this problem?? If your ignition system is wet, the spark plugs aren’t affected, it’s the wiring leading to the plugs and that means that lasers would also not work.
What we REALLY need is the “Mr. Fusion Home Energy Reactor”, which is allegedly available in 2015, according to Dr. Emmett Brown.

I’m looking forward to it.
