    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

i use an axell 7mm wire set from an auto discount house--yards cheaper too. i buy the universal sets and cut them to sizi. Im a chissler
 
I went to an auto junkyard last week to get some new wires. I just checked out all the wrecked ricer cars with the "go slower" wings on the back for new performance wires. Pulled a couple of those and a couple of nice Bosch wires out of BMW. I haven't made up new wires yet but these should do the trick just fine.

Total cost? Nothing. They were thrown in with the rare E-code headlights I took out of the BMW while I was at it. Total cost for the day? $17.

spark plug caps.

spark plug caps.

Caps are seperate, and can fail/degrade over time. I have NGKs as replacments to the stock. There are different lengths and different angles. For four cyclinders, the 2 center are differeent than the two outside.

My experience is that these caps failing/degrading are the most common causes of ignition problems.
