i hate our stupid *** cars and their stupidass cast exhaust manifolds. i have taylor wires on them, prolly 7K miles on them, and tonight i look in the dark at the engine and notice why my car is getting horrible mileage and hesitates. yep, arching spark, from my dumbass wires. now i need new wires, and i might as well change teh plugs too cause at least the one that wasnt firing is fouled for sure.

this car sucks. i treat her nice, and she craps on me.


*****.

 

Just be glad your car runs, my car went from a burned wire to a blown engine all in a week. See, things could be worse..

 

Regardless of the minor glitches and inconviences of our cars.. don't you just love it when you drop the pedal and leave the competition in the dust?

And mine went from fouled plug to 2 thrown rods in about a week, isn't it fun?

 

That sucks.

I had the same thing happen to my car about two years ago, except the engine ate up some stock wires.

Replaced them with some Taylor wires and put some protective wrap over certain spots of the wire that I thought might get damaged again along with some boot covers.

Two years later, wires are holding up fine.

Good luck with that. I know how frustrating it is.

 

I wouldnt know, only competition im leavin in my 'dust' is 5.0s and hondas and stuff. Gotta remember, mines just a 6

 

You leave 5.0s in the dust? What exactly do you have under that hood, and how do you supply the 1.2gigawatts to power the flux capacitor?

 

1. That's more than ricers can say
2. It still has the blue bowtie so 6 cylinder or not it's still a chevy
And besides, 5.0 Mustangs being beat by a 3.8 6 cyl brings a smile to my face anyway. Silly wusstangs

 

5.0's have alot of torque... what year are these 5.0's your are leaving in the dust??

 

What's so hard to believe. I've beaten a few 5.0 stangs in my day too They're all like, damn LS1 afterward too. LoL!!! No LS1 here

 

any fox body, even one with intake/exhaust, and even mid 90's with intake and exhaust. i know people with both styles, and from a dig, a roll, whatever, i win.

i dont care if they have a lot of torque or not, could be the drivers, could be the car, but i havent lost to one unless its modded.

 

I replaced stock wires with Accel Spiral...something from PepBoys almost year ago. They need to be cut to fit, very easy to do. Never used any protective shielding. 1 year and 35k miles and they are working perfect - no arcing, missing, etc.
