Kees,
I second your thoughts but would like to draw the attention to the necessity
of having 100% good HT leads, as current tends to take the way with the
least resistance. This is what current makes humanly.

Rick,
You are right up to a point. When you run a high energy coil or
electronic ignition you also have to increase the gap of the plug
considerably, thus creating the need for a higher voltage to spark. It
is all about energy, a stronger spark through higher voltage and/or
longer duration. The system also needs sufficient capacity to be able to
release the extra energy.
In the standard set up of cars I have never come accross bad plugs
although I have heard stories enough in the past about Champion being
lousy plugs. If things went wrong with the plugs, it was usually
carburettor related.
