I just bought a set of Arospeed 9.2mm spark plug wires for my all stock 91 Civic D15B1. My factory wires are not bad, but I just wanted a reasonable upgrade. I got a good deal on them, not the 50+ dollars off the website. Here is the issue: the metal connector for the distributor on two of the wires doesn't hold on the distributor cap, but the other two do. I can possibly reshape the ends with pliers. Second, The rubber cover around the wire that caps the area around the hole in the valve cover is a universal I guess because it is able to move up and dwn the wire. Even when it is down it doesn't seem to provide the same degree of seal that the factory wires do. I regularly wash the engine bay and I rely on those seal points to prevent the water from seeping down to the plugs. Is this an issue? Anyone with these wires and no problems?

My overall point of this post is the following:
Is a larger size of wire better?
If so, why?
If not, why and what are the disadvantages? Any long term damage possibilities?

I have not run my car with these wires on yet, so I need the info before I do.

BTW, if it matters, my plugs are the manual recommended NGKs with about 15K on them.

 

I really don't thinkit matters on a mostly stock car. You could of just got OEM or NGKs.

 

Yeah, but these retail for more than the NGKs and I got them for far less than a set of NGKs, so this is why I bought them.

 

P.S. Where does the ignition wire go?

The order the wires attach to the distributor is what? This:

2 1 - distributor
4 3

1234- engine top

 

Why is it that everyone can post ways to help a member repair carbon fiber, but no one can answer questions about spark plug wires. WTF!?

 

im not exactly sure myself but the best way to get awnsers fast when you got a stock motor is get a hanes manual. they have everything from changing your oil to a complete engine rebuild.

 

Go buy a damn Manual. It will show you the order for your plugs.
