Ok guys time for a tune up while it's still unseasonable warm. Want to do the ignition system already replaced the coil and i want to the the wires plugs and cap. Now if read through some past posts and found some good info. Heres what i gather autolites are the best but i forget which number ones i should use. I know a cap with brass terminals but what size/brand of wires should i get. Also i sometime have the death wobble problem if i replace the ball joints and or the idler arm will it fix this problem. Also prices for all this stuff would be handy too thanks a bunch!

 

my opinion only here... based on my experiences with my 2000 5.9... skip the brass cap & rotor & get genuine mopar cap & rotor. brass did not last long for me...

as for the DW problem, get the parts you think are bad replaced, then get it re-aligned with the maximum amount of caster the tech can put in it. outside the spec is ok... this fixes it 99% of the time once the front end is reasonbly tight.

 

cool cool what about the wires and plugs? any specific brands you prefer, also i have noticed that the cap is not in the most convient place. I know i have to remove the airbox but any other suggestions would be apprcicated thanks

 

MSD superconductor 8.5's are the best way to go. dont have to worry about routing so much as indicated by the TSB out there for wire routing...

 

autolites good or bad for plugs?

 

Yep, MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor wires. My mileage improved when I first installed them.
I've tried SplitFire (no difference), platinum plugs (no difference). I've heard the Platinum Plus-4 plugs don't run right in some vehicles.

 

autolite 3923's are the way to go... no platnums, just plain old resistor plugs... said to be good for about 5 hp...

 

ok thanks very much going tommorow i'll let you know how it goes and the difference after thanks again!

 

if your going to get the msd wires... look at summit racing.com... they are about the cheepest out there and are pretty quick to ship to your door.

 

is there a part number all i can find are ones for GM
