#26285, "FYI: Resistance of stock plug wires vs. aftermarket wires"




          

I changed my plugs and wires yesterday. I got the Accel Thundersport 300's, and I decided to see if they really have 150 ohms of resistance. I plugged a multimeter in the stock Mopar wires first, my reading as 2.8K (2800 ohms), almost 3K. I then measured the Accel ones, according to the sleeve it has a resistive value of 150 ohms, and the reading a got was a mere 92 ohms (that's the longer one of the wires too). The car feels a lot stronger with them on. Oh well, just FYI.

Usually, wires rated in resistance per foot. Maybe those aren't spec'd that way, but our wires are fairly short, so if it was 150/ft, then sounds like it could be correct if the wire were about 7" long.

either way, they work fine emoji

I got the thundersports too. They kick ass. Don't buy ractive 9mm. They arc like a mofo.
