Subject:Burnt spark plug wire
From:Peter Lapp

So, I noticed my plug wire from the ignition coil to the distributor seemed
to be bulging right at the boot where it connects to the coil. I touched it
and it basically disintegrated. The rubber and plastic were burnt and
calling apart. What would have caused that? Bad connection? These are brand
new wires from Bus Depot, maybe 2 months old. I still have my old wires, so
I guess I'll put my old one back on there for now.
