Stock spark plug wires (1 Viewer)

[knuckle47]

I am going to do a simple change of my stock spark plug wires this month if I can make the walk to the shop. They are getting a bit stiff. I also seem to be flooded with fancy sales buzz words about spark plug wires and prices from $20.00 to $112.00 per set.

I recognize there are some real benefits in some cases for high end wires but my engine is stock from intake to exhaust and stock distributor. Naturally, I would like the same reliability built in by toyota and don’t see the need to go too much beyond that. Can someone shed some light on this for me? Or point me to the right place to send for them?

I got these recently, I like them

Thanks @Pighead for $27.00. My dilemma is solved

I bought some sort of high end blue spark plug wires back in the 1990's. They are still on there and still work fine. Accel 8mm maybe.

I bought an oem set from ccot and they work fine and we’re ver expensive.

EDIT: DILEMA SOLVED? or so I thought….. $15.00 for shipping for the wires and can’t find that number NGK spark plug after 35 minutes of typing those numbers. After just looking for PLAIN OLD Land Cruiser spark plugs…6 plugs are $18.00 or so and $21.00 to ship

Since I can’t drive yet, I just figured I would get all the supplies I need first and then go out and fiddle around putting them in when I can.
So gave up locally and looking now at MUD vendors which I usually try to support first.

I think I got the wires from Parts Geek.
The spark plugs are getting hard to find locally, usually a special order. I've ordered from Denso in the past.

SOLVED! Went straight to Denso…. Plugs and wires ….free shipping.

A 3 hour ordeal….. you can tolerate a ton when you’re stuck inside for a few weeks
Whew!

I bought a set of Whittaker silicone plug wires in 1980. Never had an issue, they are almost like new.
