Blue see thru spark plug wires
When I rebuilt the '48 Mercury engine in my dad's '32 he had blue see thru spark plug wires on it. I have seen red ones for sale but as of yet have not see the blue. Does anyone know where I can find the blue ones ?
Thanks in advance for any info. |

I used to die plastic parts on radio controlled cars. Just normal RIT dye. You'd probably have to keep the ends out of the water but if you did the whole roll at once it wouldn't be a big problem to lose a little bit.

Re: Blue see thru spark plug wires
Word of advice - These transparent/solid core wires should be used for points only ignitions. Solid core wires mess up electronic ignitions.

Re: Blue see thru spark plug wires
Ive been trying to find a source but cant. Found out that also makes spark "wires" using neon tubes to transfer the electricity so they actually light up and glow when running.

Re: Blue see thru spark plug wires
2 - 21" pieces @ $45.00 x 4 = $180.00 WOW!
Not sure 21" is long enough for the driver side. It's a start. |
