Question

After driving the car home this evening, I popped open the hood with the engine running (hoping to find something).

Well since I was working with a Maglight, I flipped off the headlights and my flashlight. Low and behold; I noticed the spark plug wires arcing in 2 places. One is where the wires wrap around the distributor, and the second location was near the intake manifold.

I was planning to go back to the shop tomorrow to return the test ECU that they loaned me. They think that it might me the temperature sensor on the head. I am going to request that they replace the wires.

If the wires are causing the problem, then why would it happen only when the car is cold?

Any other suggestions?

Thank you very much for your input.
