#22288, "Accel 8.8mm Race Wires not working???"




          

I installed the 8.8mm racing wires from accel on my 95 GS and when i started the car it felt as though the car was running on only three cylinders. I checked all of the connections numerous times and everything is fine. Can a stock coil pack and ngk plugs handle these wires? Any information is appreciated. Thanks

The wires were made by my friend, custom made. Everything is connected right. He made a set for his first gen non turbo and they work just fine. Im going to take them apart and try to figure it out. Thanks

Check the gap on your plugs.

I think that 0.03-0.035 is the best. I heard that some people has problem with too large gap.

Ok, this is how I figured mine out, get ur stock wires out and put them on, now one at a time put ur accel wires on one at a time, that will tell you if on is bad, then you can fix it. I have one bad one from accel, but no one care emoji
