I've been branded by my 66 GTO!!!
Don't do this. I was adjusting the idle stop screw on my 66 GTO when I felt a burning on my wrist and smell of burnt flesh. After whipping my left hand off the engine my watch fell off my wrist. I inadvertantly touched the back of the alternator with my watchs' metal band and must have shorted out something. Burned my wrist and melted the link on the band.
Moral of the story remove watches before working near the alternator.
OUCH!!!
