Please tell me what these are....
 

and what vehicle they fit. They look like some type of spark plug boot or clip, but I am perplexed as I never have seen any like this. They are made of bakelite plastic. The words on the item say: R.E.I. PASER MAGNUM. PAT. PENDING. Thanks.

They look like aftermarket radio noise suppressors, coil lead and each plug gets one to help supress the ignition noise picked up by the radio..

Just one of the failed ignition devices designed to alter or inhance the ignition system on many different cars. (supposedly to improve milage and/or emissions)

That is an incomplete set of chess pieces. All the white pieces are missing and curiously, most of the black pieces appear to have been pawns promoted to knights.

Your move.

Here is an exerpt from the deceptive trade practices law suit brought against R.E.I. in 1972.

"REI Industries, Inc. fabricates the 'Paser Magnum,' a device which is attached to spark plug wires in a gasoline combustion engine. Among its many properties appellants advertise that the 'Paser Magnum' reduces air pollution. Its many benefits are to be realized, so it is claimed, for the low price of $29.95 complete with a 'money-back guarantee.'
With respect to the alleged violations of the Deceptive Trade Practices Act, appellee declared that the appellants were selling the 'Paser Magnum' by representing that its use caused less air pollution (up to 100% Reduction in hydrocarbons), and that this result was guaranteed 'or your money back.' Appellee pleaded further that appellants claimed in their advertising literature that one of their warehouse distributors could earn at least $18,000 annually while a General Distributor could earn over $100,000, and that by utilizing appellants' 'Pyramid Sales Scheme' to market the 'Paser Magnum' participants could reasonably expect to receive large profits because of the virtually inexhaustible number of potential participants."
"After reviewing the record we are not persuaded that the trial court abused its discretion in entering the temporary injunction. Merrill W. Korth, a mechanical engineer for the Bureau of Mobile Pollution Sources, testified concerning the results of tests to determine whether the 'Paser Magnum' reduced vehicle emissions. Those results showed the 'Paser Magnum' to have no significant effect on either increasing or decreasing vehicle emissions"

Thanks to all, especially 51 MERC-CT. I had no idea what they were. Amazing how so many gizmos have been "invented" to empty your wallet.
