Superformance Spark Plug wires

At the risk of appearing flippant - have you asked them?

They are very helpful.

 

Are there different variants on the QV? I can only see one set of parts on the TAV (which I think are the same ones used on the 328 as well).

WHen I replaced mine a year or so back you now get a cap to coil lead in the set with the four leads per bank so you don't need to buy those as seperate parts even though they are listed seperately (assuming Superformance are just selling OEM leads).

 

In North America we have a vendor for rebuilding your wire sets.

Dave Helms bought a bulk roll of the last of the cable...

 

Did you try to reboot? If that didn't help you need a new keyboard. Try another keyboard first.

 

Yes, you are worrying about nothing. The Superformance wires are fine, Taylor 73251 are fine, Dave Helms rebuilds are fine, Magnacores are fine.

 

I to had to work through a stumble or two in my car at certain rpm's. We:

1) changed wires
2)changed extenders
3)changed plugs
4)found oil in one distributor cap (replaced seals)
5)discovered previous owner bypassed saftey relay and the freq. valve was not buzzing
so that was corrected.
6) mixture adjustment reset with gas analyzer
7) throttle microswitch replaced

= smoothest running car I have driven in a long time.
oh and I started using Techron again with half tank of gas to increase the concentration. It seems to help.

p.s. sometimes the miss is still there just not as noticable as things get exciting and loud.

 

I did as Big Tex suggested and sent my plug wires to Dave Helms to be rebuilt after being sent garbage from two different suppliers, Good as new, tested, and cost me less than the aftermarket product I recieved. EDIT Superformance was not one of the suppliers.

 

the p.s. was in refrence to your car. If it misses at 2400 I would expect it to miss elsewhere. Good luck running down your little gremlin.

 

I test drove a new Alfa on a test ride many years ago and the damn car just died. I popped the hood and there was a big red button on the firewall. I pushed it and the damn thing started right up. It was a reset button. What it reset I have no clue to this day. The other way remote possibility really remote is an alpha particle strike taking out a piece of the timing map in memory in the ECU:

"There are two types of soft errors:
chip-level soft error:
These errors occur when the radioactive atoms in the chip's material decay and release alpha particles into the chip.
Because an alpha particle contains a positive charge and kinetic energy, the particle can hit a memory cell and cause the cell to change state to a different value. The atomic reaction is so tiny that it does not damage the actual structure of the chip. Chip-level errors are rare because modern memory is so stable that it would take a typical computer with a large memory capacity at least 10 years before the radioactive elements of the chip's materials begin to decay.
system-level soft error:
These errors occur when the data being processed is hit with a noise phenomenon, typically when the data is on a data bus. The computer tries to interpret the noise as a data bit, which can cause errors in addressing or processing program code. The bad data bit can even be saved in memory and cause problems at a later time."

Our cars are way older then 10 years. Scary huh.

 

It can be a fuel problem. A stumble not only come from ignition. Sometime the fuel system is the culprit and it feel very similar.

 

OR.... you can pick up the phone and call when you need an answer. With an average of 132 emails / day, and my real job is Fixing cars... sometimes that is a better solution.

 

Heck no, your fine. You just happened to send an email on one of our Holidays

 

Find a question mark on any forum...... Copy it, and then paste it into word or similar and then copy/paste when you need to use it but for $20 I'd buy another keyboard.

Cheers,

Bob.

PS: here are a few for you... ???????????
