The entire run, and each was brief, at the most five seconds. That's
all it took to let the smoke out of the wires and create more work for
me. I'll try again tomorrow night if I can, using some of the
suggestions I have gotten.

Did you burn any wire on the secondary or did you shut down quickly
enough to prevent it? Will racing sparks always cause burning or did I
let it run too long?
