ACCEL designed its SuperStock 4000 series sets to upgrade an OE ignition system for high spark delivery in street-driven applications. A silicone jacket rated to 450 degrees F is extruded over a tightly woven, rugged fiberglass braid. That braid is applied over high dielectric strength inner insulation, giving ignition wire performance that exceeds SAE specifications.
- Core: carbon graphite core with an 8mm wire diameter.
- Boots: straight silicone spark plug boots, with a boot temperature rating that meets or exceeds OE.
- Resistance: meets or exceeds OE.
- Color: blue.
Spark plug wires carry high-voltage current from the ignition system to each spark plug. Signs your wires may need replacing include misfires, a rough idle, hard starting, or cracked, brittle, or burned insulation and boots. Other ignition parts can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If worn wires are the cause, this set replaces them.
Sold as one set, and the listed applications use one set. ACCEL backs it with a limited 90-day warranty. Country of origin: China.
