CHECK YOUR PLUGS

A man is touring Ireland, driving his rental car through the countryside, when the engine
begins to falter. He stops, looks at the engine and hears a voice saying, “Check your plugs.”

Looking out across the fields, there’s nobody to be seen, just a few horses.
He turns back to have another look around the car, and again hears, “Check your plugs.”
He turns around, and a white horse is standing by the fence.

“Was that you?” he says to the horse.
“Yes”, it replies, “Check your plugs.”
The man turns back to the car, and sure enough, finds a loose spark plug lead.
He pushes it back on, starts the car again, and it’s running.

“Thank you!” he shouts to the horse, who nods and replies, “No problem, you’re welcome.”
The tourist continues on his way.
He drives on to the next village and decides he has to tell someone what’s happened.

Finding a pub, he goes in to the landlord, “You’ll never believe what’s just happened,”
and continues to recount his experience.
“Was it a black horse?” asks the landlord.
“No, a white one,” replies the tourist.
“Oh, thank the Lord for that!” says the landlord.

“How come?”
“Because that black one knows absolutely nothing about cars.”
