Default Re: 47 V8 ignition mystery

Aye!! I now feel your pain. If it was mine, I'd hafta run right out to the garage for my stash of used spark plug wires. Pull that cap cover and mess of wires crammed into those metal tubes. Then connect my old used wires directly to the cap and plugs to see if it runs OK.


BTW, I did away with those metal tubes on my helmet. Common sense suggests it's not good to tightly cram 4 or 5 high tension wires all together into a grounded metal tube. Replaced the tubes with black heater hose with a slightly bigger id for ease of assembly. If you don't look too close and maybe squint a little, you can hardly tell the difference.
