TECHNICAL  EXTRA:

ELECTRICAL THEORY BY JOSEPH LUCAS


Positive ground  depends upon proper circuit functioning, which is the 
transmission of  negative ions by retention of the visible spectral
manifestation known as  "smoke". Smoke is the thing that makes
electrical circuits work; we know this  to be true because every time 
one lets the smoke out of the electrical  system, it stops working.
This can be verified repeatedly through empirical  testing.

When, for example, the smoke escapes from an electrical  component 
(like, say, a Lucas voltage regulator), it will be observed that  the 
component stops working. The function of the wire harness is to carry  
the smoke from one device to another; when the wire harness "springs a  
leak," and lets all the smoke out of the system, nothing works  
afterwards. Starter motors were frowned upon in British motorcycles for  
some time, largely because they consume large quantities of smoke,  
requiring very large wires.

It has been noted that Lucas components  are possibly more prone to 
electrical leakage than Bosch or generic Japanese  electrics. Experts 
point out that this is because Lucas is British and all  things British 
leak. British engines leak oil, shock absorbers and hydraulic  forks and 
disk brakes leak fluid, British tyres leak air, and the British  defense 
establishment leaks secrets... so, naturally, British electrics leak  
smoke.

>From the basic concept of electrical transmission of energy in  the form 
of smoke, a better understanding of the mysteries of  electrical
components - - especially those of Lucas manufacture - - is gained  by 
the casual user.
