| Post subject: | Spark Plug Wire Recommendations? |
After less than two years my NOS wires are breaking at the hard plastic part under the rubber disc/stoppers that cover the spark plug tunnels. I sure like the ay they cover those tunnels, but not the breaking. Any suggestions for good kits? I'd really like to avoid crimping my own wires. Thanks, Joe |

The covers should be replaceable. I used VW covers on non-NOS wires. |

Er-ummm... ...there are no hard plastic parts on any original-equipment spark plug wires. The OE boots in all years were rubber. If they're behaving like hard plastic, they are well and truly cooked. Use Magnecor wires. |

Thanks for the tips. Magnecors are a bit out of my price range at the moment, so I went with some Autolites that the parts store could get easily. They seem to make a difference. Always appreciative of the expertise available, Joe |

I am using some Accel wires that I got cause they were on discount price. Are the wires any good? |
