[ba] F5DP0R in a 4ksq

Thanx.  You are right about the wire.  Our 4ksq has some cheap Accel wires.
I meant to get some good ones but never did.  I installed them tonight and
they made an improvement.  But, not to say that they were any better then a
new set of the W7DTC plugs.  I have gotten several private response telling
me that there is no reason not to use them.  Everyone that has, highly
recommends them.  So, I think now I am going to order a GOOD set of custom
wires from Kingsborne with  the correct ends on them.

Thank you,
