how can i tell the difference between GSR spark plug wires and LS spark plug wires. i need to know because my friend just bough a ek with b18c1 swap and the car is having stuttering problems and we are not sure if the wires are gsr wires. i have a set of oem sumitumo gsr wires in my gf's ls but she needs real LS and i haven't been able to find it, so to make a long story short is there any difference in looks wise so i can determind which is LS and which is GSR. thanks.

they are all oem honda sumitumo wires
the real gsr has a i guess looks like a small thick wire cover on the 1 spark plug(longest wire) and the one on my friend's doesn't match, iono if this helps anything but thought i might put it out.

 

anyone?

 

bump.

 

My car is a LS and i use plugs for a GSR on mine so i dont think thats anything. You probly just have the wires in the wrong order just take each one out and plug them into a different end on your distributor cap until all start fireing right.

 

idk about that, i ordered a set of msd wire for a b18b and they showed up for a b16 and they wouldnt work. so if they were interchangeable they wouldnt have seperate listings for both.

 

Either gs-r wores are taller (where they go into the head) or ls ones are longer. It should be fine, when I bought my car it came with msd wires on my ls, when i did the gsr swap i just re used the wires, but they broke and i have some random bseries in there right now, runs fine... Does your buddy have an external coil? if so, check the connectors on the inside of the distributor, mine was chatterin bad too. It turned out to just be a loos connection and a broke plug wire... good luck

 

i see. well i use gsr plugs on my gf's b18b and yes the gsr plugs are a bit too long for the b18b, it sticks out just a bit.

my friend's car, i dont think he has an external coil, but i'm double check.
