Spark Plugs and Wires
Spark Plugs and Wires
I have just bought 4 NGK Spark Plugs 2 Trailing and 2 LEading
and got NGK Plug Wires and have a few questions.
1. Anything special I need to do with the plugs
2. Where are the trailing and the leading located. I see them on the engine but don't know how to differentiate them.
3. The wires have two short blue boots and two longer wired black boots are these how you know trailing and leading.
any other tips appreciated

1) Nothing special other than to use anti-seize on the threads.
2) Leading are bottom plugs, trailing are top.
3) The wires will work either way. Just the front coil pack might need the longer ones but there is no trailing or leading spark plug wires.

t for trailing and L for leading is better associated if you think T for top and L for lower. also the trailing coils are in the rear and leading are in front. also L1 and T1 are in front L2 and T2 are in back
With the NGK wire set, the black boots are for the leading plugs (bottom two), blue boots for trailing. Hope I'm remembering that right, anyway
...They are different lengths and resistances, so if they don't seem to work (lengthwise) like I said, just reverse everything...
Do not use a lot of anti-seize, if any...Those threads in the rotor housing are your plugs' grounds, and good electrical contact conductivity makes for a good spark...

Dude, recheck all of your plug wire connections. The plastic covers on the coils are labeled T1, T2, etc...The rotor housings are marked with T's and L's, #1 is the front housing, #2 the rear housing...Make sure the wires are going to the right plugs. Before you hurt your engine...

ok the two longer cables go to the bottom plugs and plug in near the front of the engine compartment. The two smaller plugs wires plug into the two top plugs and goes to near the firewall. The only one thing that is bugging me is that the plug on the bottom closest to the firewall doesn't look like it is in as far as the others. I have tried it about nine times to reinsert it. Can anyone confirm if this could be my problem. thanks for the help everyone
The coils on the FC are pretty heavy duty. That could be your problem.
I have seen the primary coil (one side) spark from inside (no wire) up and over the wall to the body of the car. Almost shat myself.
I had a broken plug wire and that is exactly what it sounded like, a really sharp click click click since they fire so damn often.
