Do stick?
Dip stick maybe?
Could you see it arcing while it was running? A spark plug wire grounding out like that will surely cause what you described. I would hit a junkyard for those clips.
Laughed my a$$ off when I saw that. Really hope he meant dip stick.
I've melted so many wires on headers and exhaust manifolds over the years. It shoulda been the very first thing I mentioned.
Hard to find a functional set of wire looms to keep wires off of the headers. Most companies try to hard for bling instead of just being functional.
