plug wire issue

[andyschlueter]

For some reason I decided to call Bosch on this issue. They called back and
are going to try and fix the problem. They said this would explain why they
never sell many sets of these wires. Bosch even asked I knew the correct
lengths. Told them the correct lengths. So, in the there maybe a fix in the
bosch wire sets in the future.

Bremi also makes a set that is working well for me - if your WoldPac/local
guy can't get them, I got mine from Rick at importpartsspec.com (local to
me).
