You might want to try our host first, but you can get them from Andial by calling 714.957.3900.
Part number is 901 609 132 01 and they're about $8-$9 each. Ralph |

When I do that I get a "retainer". Is that the spark plug hold downs? Thanks, Dean |

Yeah, something is wrong. If Jerry W and Andial get near $10, Pelican isn't going to have the same thing for $1.74.

I think the $10 units are the twin plug lower plug connector holders. I believe Christian is just looking for wire seperators. correct?

I think Christian is asking about the extended-Z-shaped stainless steel tabs that affix to a valve-cover stud and reach out to keep a sparkplug boot from retracting under vibration, or whatever, on a twin-plug car.

![]() I was at Willow Springs the other day and my spark plug boot came off. So I changed the tips on the spark plugs and i will use Spark plug hold downs so it will not happen again. Christian

I'm looking for the wire loom/hold-downs that were similiar to the ones uswed on the OEM wire set. Basically, I need separation and something to mount down to keep them from moving, etc. like the orange ones in the picture of bkrygiers.
Thanks, Dean |

Those things are plain, ordinary, plastic auto-parts-store parts unless you're a concours person and need originals. Moroso makes good ones, available through a variety of aftermarket/hot-rod catalogues.
