ParDeus Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 In this application, wires are wires. If they're not pinched out of the box, they're fine. Just test them with you dmm. No need to waste money on new ones. Same with plugs. If it's the same heat range, single groundstrap, you're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hershy314 Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 This is putting up a red flag to me. it's been like this since we got it. This end came loose, dunno if it effected anything. http://athphotography.deviantart.com/ http://www.youtube.com/user/hershy314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 In this application, wires are wires. If they're not pinched out of the box, they're fine. Just test them with you dmm.

Cheap aftermarket wires have a much higher resistance and in this application they most certainly could be causing a problem factory ignition systems don't like changes like that. Even though we have now found out a vacum leak is most likely the issue I personally would still change the wires. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

ParDeus Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Somewhat agreed, hence though why I said "in this situation". I would bet money that the wires he has would read very similar to an OE replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hershy314 Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Ding ding ding, we have a winner Johnny! Post a wide shot, looks like iac or vac on my phone. There isn't enough room to get a wide shot, could barely get that photo. I know it's not the IAC, that's by the throttle body. Could be a VAC. I know it was loose, did put it back where it belongs. http://athphotography.deviantart.com/ http://www.youtube.com/user/hershy314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hershy314 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Today driving around the check engine light started flashing and the O/D light was flashing. The O/D light went out out but the check engine light still flashes. Going up hill it would lose all power. Going to put a scanner tool on it sometime soon and hopefully find out what it is going on. http://athphotography.deviantart.com/ http://www.youtube.com/user/hershy314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
