'98 Legacy L 2.2-did I get wrong plug wires?


Recommended Posts

My Legacy has given me some rough starting during the many days of rainy weather here in the NE. So, I went to the local foreigh parts store and got a new set of plug wires.However, all four new wires are similar to extent that the fittings that go onto the coil(?) at a right angle.

The original wires have a "straight" fitting on the left and only the right angle fittings on the right.

Should I return them? Should I go to the accursed dealer for these wires.?

I fear they'd be too close to the manifold---for some reason Subaru puts a small set of clamps on the right and not on left??

Everything I've ever seen about Subaru plug wires over the years suggestst that the OEM ones are pretty decent. I'm not sure where they fall out on pricing (compared to aftermarket), but you could probably get them for less online (if shipping doesn't eat up the difference). When you think of how often you change an item like this, I don't get too hung up about spending $10 or $20 more. IMHO.
