thats what i have and i keep breaking the brass piece in the boot on the dizzy

 

I run NGK and OEM. Both i've never had any problems with.

But, never run the cheap autozone wires.. I hate tuning cars and having the stupid wires falling apart when I pull the plug wires to get to the plugs.


I the OP won't run them, but just FYI for some people how don't want to spend a extra $10 on wires.

 

MSD are the only plug wires for honda besides oem I have not had a problem with MSD

 

what the hell is going on with mine. it acutally looks like someone is bending and breaking the brass piece inside the boot. ths happened 4 or 5 times. ill get some pics of what i mean

 

screw msd wires.. get some cheap ngk wires! trust me.

NGK Blues...one step up from OEM NGKs

 

i run msd 8.5's zip tied to the cap, i have also used ngk blues. luck with both.

 

NGK's are great!

NGK blues work fine for me, never had a problem.

That's exactly what happened to me on the dyno. My tuner said he'd never seen OEM plugs (like from an acura dealership) come apart, but I could get NGK blues and they would be just about as good.

You can get NGK blues here:

Something isn't right then. Can you get any pictures of the brass connector before you put it on the distributor and then and after shot?

 

what do you think can be the problem. this has happened a bunch of times atleast 4 or 5 over 1 summer

 

NGK Blues

Actually, I think they are. I have heard that Sumitomo Electric makes the wires for NGK.
Also, some stock Honda wires say NGK on them
