I'll tell you how it could be.

They unplugged the water temperature sensor, not the distributor (I've seen it before).

Actually, if they said "hot wire from the distributor", they clearly didn't know what they were talking about. The only wire leading from the distributor is a ground/no ground wire which allows the coil to charge and discharge.

Only the coil has a hot wire. I'm thinking the road testers didn't much know what the hell a "wire" was.

I checked the 3000 mile, 300 horse 352 Ford review in Feb '58 Motor Life and didn't see any mention of this. Can you point me to the specific month and article?

Shoe.
