Time to upgrade

[Eta Epsilon]

I think I need to change the spark plus wires, the rotor and the distributor cap.
I would like to do it for cheap if possible.
What brand would you recommend?

I'm proposed by a local:
Bosch wire at $135
Bremi cap at $117
Bremi rotor at $26

Prices are without taxes.
Whatdo you think?

bosch spark plug wires for 135?! thats a little steep IMO wow. try looking online see what you can find.

That's rape. I just bought the whole "ignition super kit" from Pelican for $287.
This includes plugs, wires, rotor, cap and a new coil.

PM Blunt, see if he will ship to you.

Guys,
I got everything here now.
Trying to figure out how to remove the distributor cap. Do I have to remove the fan to acces to 2 lowest bolts???

I just did it yesterday and you should be able to access all of the bolts with a 1/4" drive ratchet & 8mm deep socket combo with the fan in place. Failing that, you can try removing the fan shroud first and then the fan as that does give you much better access.

I've changed all the parts and the car still jerk from time to time... f..k me.
Any idea what to check???
It looks like a misfire, but everything ignition is brand new...


Please help!
