GrandPrix34 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 I tried using 96 plug wires on my 93 because I relocated my coils *pics up later* How come when I push down on the wire, it doesn't click on. All i gotta do is slowly lift the top part and it easily pops out. Anyone have any tips to getting the wires to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dykz34 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 They don't fit because the boots are different as are the cam covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPrix34 Posted October 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 i feel as though if I file or cut the bottom part of the wires, they will fit. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dykz34 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Yea, you could probably trim the top of the boot to fit. Or you can grind the cam covers... it's up to you. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPrix34 Posted October 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 see its not that the top of the boot needs trimming...its the bottom part, the part that touches the heads. Top part is pretty clean, looks like it needs like 1mm to completely seal off the whole from anything. I am running the front 3 like I mentioned earlier and no lost of performance, (better than the dying, leaking ones I had). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNGTP94 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 if u mean where it "clips" onto the plugs then give ur idea a try it should work.. and ur best bet would be to pull a plug out and work on it that way... that way u can be sure that u can have all ur wires ready to go in before u do a bunch of guessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPrix34 Posted October 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 wow, I will be the first to do a complete coil relocation mod! I gotta get my digicam b ack for pics! Wires look ALOT better than the wires I had before that went every which way and I had to zip tie because I had excess wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandPrix34 Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 well I cut the upper portion of the spark plug boots, somewhat crude with a box cutter and the spark plug wires now firmly sit on the spark plugs. This is only for the front 3 though, so I will have to remove the plenum in order to install my rear three plugs. I feel its worth the trouble since I will have less wiring running all over the place plus it will look nice and clean. I will post pics as soon as I can get my digicam back from my cousin.
