Anybody ever seen this happen to a plug wire before? It looks like the outer material dried up and turned into powder. I'm not sure how old the wires are. I can't remember changing them so they are at least 2-3 years old. The motor was rebuilt by the PO about 6 years ago so I'm sure they were replaced then.
I am still getting spark through the wire so I just wrapped it in electrical tape until I can get new wires. I just don't want to put the new ones on there and have it do the same thing. It only happened to this one wire (#2 when starting from the front).
Other than a Pertronix conversion the ignition system is stock.
Any ideas?
