spark plug questions
I have a question for the group. I typically run Bosch plugs, I tried NKG and the plug wires ended up falling off. The wires never "snap' on like they do with the Bosch plugs and vibrate loose. My wires are factory. Has anyone ever experienced this before?
Thanks, Frank

I've never had an issue with plug wires not locking on Bosch plugs.
I have never switched from the recommended plug either.

Have you tried unscrewing the little silver tip from the Bosch plug and screwing it on the the NGK plugs?

The NKGs had solid ends that did not screw off.

OK, off of the top of my head, you could pull the boot off of the connector and look inside to see if you can bend the two copper tabs or the spring clip in there to decrease the diameter to the size of the NKG plug end. I have not looked in there for ages but worth a look.
