universal spark plug wires

Stephane, I wish I could remember if my wires came with both types of Dist tips. I do recall mentioning to the Jeggs rep, that I had the non HEI Dist. I do have a modern magnetic unit and had to cut the wires to size. Ask the seller to provide additional pictures, or if he'll guarentee them to be the correct ones.  

 

Becareful. His wires may be universal but there is 1 wire that is omigosh a gazillion inches long. (I can't remember the exact length) When I upgraded wires I ended up going to the local speed shop and custom making that one wire. All because I bought the "universal" wires.

I now recall that the wire ends that are connected to the dist had to be cut to fit. All the dist ends were apart when received, but they were pretty easy to do.

It took a little work but I no longer burn my wires. In the long run, it was worth the cost to me

All I can tell you is, it wasn't difficult. Are these wires new ? If so, they will have instructions. I wish I could be of more help but my mechanical skills are nowhere near as good as some of our other members.  

As I suggested earlier, the seller should be in a better position to answer the question as to what application the wires will work on. Or call jegg's and determine from them if the universal wires will work with your dist. 

I have never been impressed with "universal wires". I avoid them. I would be very suprised to see a set of wires that could be neatly and securely installed and work on a long term basis even by a PRO. Seems to me the connections are always less than desirable. As if the wires don't pull loose from the boot (when removing a wire from any end) often enough with machine made much less hand made. Please tell us how those work out.

I use a small amount of silcone on the boot ends to keep them in place.

I suppose Dielectric compond,( electrical lube ) could help in any case if used regularly, but even those of us who already have this stuff in our arsenal of goodies forget to use it as often as needed. On spark plug boots it is an absolute must. And on the metal connectors also as it serves to protect the connection from moisture.
