Under the yoke? Hmmmm.. sparks usually equals flyback, but under the yoke is odd. Is it loose?

Wait, what did you plug the monitor into? You used an iso, right?

Oh, and I've gotten to the point where I just cap the monitor first before I fire it up. Saves time.

^THIS

Cap the monitors BEFORE firing it up. When caps are at wrong values due to age and leakage it affects the electronic properties. This can for example increase a frequency somewhere in the circuit causing higher voltages to be generated and thereby blow the damn thing to kingdom come.

Lol! And you thought it was a long drive for you!

EDIT: You ARE crazy, its only two hours further from where I live in Oklahoma to get to Regina SK.

Great thread, but yea, I agree. I could never drive that far for a cab. Btw, about what parts of OK you live in?
