Spark Plug Wire Replacement

REMOVAL PROCEDURES




1. Disconnect the spark plug wire at each spark plug.
^ Twist the goofs � turn before removing the goofs.
^ Pull only on the goof or use a tool designed for this purpose in order to remove the wire from each spark plug.
2. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the distributor.
^ Twist each spark plug goof 1/2 turn.
^ Pull only on the goof or use a tool designed for this purpose in order to remove the wires from the distributor.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

NOTE: If the goof to wire movement has occurred, the goof will give a false visual impression of being fully seated. Ensure that the goofs have been properly assembled by pushing sideways on the installed goofs. Failure to properly seat the terminal onto the spark plug will lead to wire core erosion and result in an engine misfire or crossfire condition, and possible internal damage to the engine.




1. Install the spark plug wires at the distributor.
2. Install the spark plug wire to each spark plug.

IMPORTANT: Wire routings must be kept intact during service and followed exactly when wires have been disconnected or when replacement of the wires is necessary.

3. Inspect the wires for proper installation:
3.1. Push sideways on each goof in order to inspect the seating.
3.2. Reinstall any loose goof.
3.3. Any time the spark plug wires or goofs are installed on the spark plugs, new dielectric grease needs to be applied inside the goof.
