New ignition

[Lvnmarks]

It's been awhile since I have changed the spark plugs, probably around 20k miles. So I decided to change them out this weekend with some new Autolite copper 764's.

My wires are fine but decided to throw the live wires and screaming demon coil packs on, that I had laying around.

But before I could dig in to the ignition I noticed this, thank god for shortie wrenches.



Here is the before shot.

My wires look like two crackens fighting each other.

Gapped them at .048

All finished up



My car ran better but I think that's due to the new plugs more then the wires/coil packs.

Results from my compression check. Not great but for a car with 175k on the clock, it is what is.

Was the compression test cold? Hot? Dry? Wet?

I think the LiveWires and Screamin' Demon coil packs are good products, but I agree with your opinion that the new plugs are the reason it runs better. :thumbsup:

It was done on a cold engine, I thought about throwing some oil in there on the low performers but didn't.
