Looks like you answered all your own questions nicely. The ends of the wires should sorta snap into place, if they don't, then pull the boots back a bit and collapse the connectors alittle so that they will snap in place at the dist. cap end or plug side end, then snug the boots back. Make sure that the wire holders aren't pulling at the wires. Also make sure the plugs are torqued to 7 lb/ft.

buy OEM Honda wires or NGK wires. They are the only wires that FIT directly and stay on. I had trouble with MSD.

Now I use OEM Honda. They fit perfect, and stay on all the time.

I'll second that. I bought an Integra recently with MSD wires and they wouldn't stay on. I swapped them for my NGK's off my wrecked car and the problem is gone. Now I just need to get rid of the shitty Bosch Distributor the car came with. Anyone want to buy some used MSD wires?.....lol
