Bad spark plug wires can cause a decrease in engine performance, decrease fuel economy, and can even cause hard starting (a condition where it is difficult to start your vehicle when the engine is \"cold\"-hasn'
If you let your spark plug wires go for more than 30,000 miles without being changed (and even sometimes if you don't), they can be difficult to remove. The constant heating and cooling of the engine every day can cause the rubber to stick to the spark plugs or the distributor electro...
You can measure the resistance of the spark plug wires with a digital multimeter to see if they are working properly. Each foot of a wire should have a resistance of 10,000 to 15,000 ohms. A higher resistance indicates bad wiring. Even a hairline rupture somewhere can cause a total failu...
Tired of melting spark plug boots causing you headaches? ACCEL's Ceramic Spark Plug Boot spark plug wires can handle the heat...up to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit! Perfect if you have headers or are working in tight quarters where heat is inescapable!
Pop the coil (or the spark plug wire) back into place, put back any part you had to remove to access the plugs, and you’re done. Now, just fire up the engine to make sure everything works the way it was designed to! Ford announced last year that it would adopt the Tesla North...
The voltage produced can reach tens of thousands of volts, and travel to the spark plugs through spark plug wires. As the high voltage jumps the spark plug gap, it ignites the air-fuel mixture within the cylinder, starting the combustion process. This is basically what happens when we turn...
Use the 9/16” socket or wrench to release the tension and finish routing the belt. Step 11: Reinstall both belt covers. Step 12: Reinstall the access panel and bolt. Step 13: Reconnect your spark plug wires. Use our parts finder to locate and order any replacement parts ...

the center and four, six or eight wires (depending on the number of cylinders) coming out of it. Theseignition wiressend the charge to each spark plug. The engine is timed so that only one cylinder receives a spark from the distributor at a time. This approach provides maximum smoothness....
With the cylinder number one location marked, install the distributor cap and the number one plug wire followed by the remaining wires in the correct firing order. Wiring the Distributor is an easy affair as well: an input and output to the Sniper, two wires (+ and -) to the coil,a gr...
