Default 94 w/ factory dual ignition

I'm looking at a 1994 standard cab short bed 2x4 with the 2.3. Guy is selling it for his buddy who is overseas. Thing is, he is advertising it has a factory dual ignition set-up (8 spark plugs). He didn't say it made extra power or got better mpg, or any other claims. He just said it was really rare.

Anyone heard of this??? Whats the deal on it? Not sure if I should even think about this truck now. Let me know. Thanks.

Lots of four cylinder Ranger's rolled off the line with 8 plugs.

My Ranger is not old; no one would call her old. She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine truck: weatherly, stiff and fast... very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime.

It's the way they were -all- made for several years. Mine's exactly the same.

Thanks for the responds guys. They weren't willing to come down in price enough for me to buy it. Guess they'll find someone else. I found a nice 4.0 5-speed for a good deal instead. Just have to pick it up, and wash it.
