Can a double pole 20 amp breaker be used with 12-2 wire for a single 220 circuit?
The term "double pole" usually means a breaker with 2 handles that attaches in the space as a normal single pole breaker. If this is what you mean, no, you cannot. There is no potential, or voltage, between the wire terminals. If by "double pole" you mean what is usually called a 2-pole breaker, which is a breaker with 2 handles that attaches in the space of 2 single pole breakers, then yes, you can use this breaker and 12/2 wire to produce a 220v circuit.

On a 3 wire plug is the wider blade hot or neutral?
On a 3 wire plug (NEMA 5 configuration, 125v 2 pole 3 wire grounding) the narrow blade is the "hot" lead, the wide blade is the neutral lead, and the U shaped prong is the equipment grounding conductor (EGC). Most 2+G non-metallic-cables (NMC) are color coded for Black = "hot", White = neutral, and Bare = EGC
Where are the 2 hot 1 neutral and 1 grn placed on a 6-30 3 prong female plug?

Can a double pole circuit breaker be used for 2 different circuits I have a 20 amp double pole breaker want 2 circuits running 14 gauge wire?
can a 20 amp double pole circuit breaker be used for 2 different 120 v circuits using 14 - 2 wire
Why do I get Shocked by a spark plug wire?
1) because spark plugs work by getting a huge blast of electricity delivered to them through the wire 2) because the insulation of the wire isn't perfect, so part of that electricity can jump to you.
I changed a wire and spark plug still does the same now what. it was diagnosed as no 2 cylinder no fire?
If you have a no fire situation on #2 cylinder, then the plug is bad, or plug wire is bad, or coil is bad if it has a coil on plug configuration. You may also have a burnt valve, or blown head gasket.
Spark plug wiring 1991 Jeep Cherokee?
2.5L Take a look at the distributor cap. It should have a "1" on it. That goes to the front of the engine. The rotor turns clockwise when looking at it from the front. The next wire is going to be 3. Plug that wire into the 3rd plug from the front. The next one is 2. Plug that wire into the 2nd plug. The final one is 4. Plug that into the furthest plug.
There is a code that says that wire or plug 2 is bad?
code P0302 would indicate a misfire in cylinder #2 .Most common thing is a plug or wire , But this could be a number of other things causing cly. #2 to misfire.

Change the wire, or coil plug
