Plug Wires

FYI - thought I had scored the "deal", but as kind of expected, the wires I received
were for a 10V.  Still a good buy, but I did not need another new set of these. Might
have one set to sell.  I'll probably just return since wires do not appear to be bad.

The rotors also were incorrect - I think we expected that.

Plugs are right on - not the original Bosch, but these look every bit as good and I had
NKG similar ones before.  I found a lot of oil around several plug wires, and electrodes
coated with oil, cleaning up the old plugs  did the trick to get rid of hesitation
problem I had, but installed the new ones.  

Should be correct cap, but was sent in separate shipment, so don't know yet.

Also, I failed to mention the order was from RockAuto.com

Now I need to figure out why so much oil is getting in there - I suspect coming through
the valve cover gasket.
