Magnecor Wire problems
Story: On Friday I arrived at work, and just before I turned off the car it all the sudden stalled on me. When I would try and start it, it would start, but I would have to give it gas to keep it going. Also, it sounded like a race car, and with alot of backfiring. I began troublshooting when I got off of work. I could still drive it, but I had to give it gas the complete way home to prevent it from stalling. Luckily I only live 7 blocks from where I work...
Today when checking the Spark plug wires, I found that the Trailing plug to the Front Rotor was split down the middle. I just got these a little over 6 months ago from the rx7store. Now I must wait until I can get another set of plug wires. Which ones to get; I don't know? I guess there is more searching to come.
Also I just got my Super Polished UIM,LIM,and TB from "CantgoStraight" A.K.A. Jack, and I can't wait to get them installed.

I thought Magnecor wires had a lifetime Warranty. Did they do away with that? I would contact Magnecor and see if they will send you a replacement for free since this wire is defective. Magnecor wires usually are very durable. That's their main selling point.

A little trick to getting the boots onto the plug (without damaging the boot) is to grease the plugs a little with some dielectrical grease. It will help the plug slip on a lot better.
