vintagejoe Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 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?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Return them. It's best to use the right parts, especially for ignition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commuter Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 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. Commuter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
