32659, Spark Plug Wires
Posted by fungul, Sep-13-02 05:24 PM
I'm getting ready to buy my THIRD fucking set of spark plug wires and I have a few questions. Is there any kind of weird engines conditions that would make spark plug wires fail early? Are there wires that will last longer than the Magnecores I've been using and if so whats a good place to find them reasonably priced?

I'd apreciate any help you can give me.

Make sure your spark plug wires are NOT hot when you remove them for any reason (change spark plugs, compression test, etc.) When the wires are hot, they are brittle and can break inside the insulation.
