Re: Electrical woes continue. Help? FIXED!!!

I will second the 'don't get Accel wires'.

Pieces of crap. The ends all broke off the first time I changed the
plugs. I used dielectric grease under the boots so they came off fine,
the metal clips mostly all stayed on the plugs and then in the
distributor cap when I went to change them.

I went OEM wires from Chrysler with an Accel SuperCoil in 2000 and I
cross water over my hood with the standing water at the bottom of my
headlights with no problems. 42" to the bottom of my headlights, I do
get a wet butt occasionally, but they have never let me down.
