Re: Spark-plug wires for 5000ST ..



<spark plug wires for 5000,  do's don'ts
   If you are really adventurous, try this:
     for my 87 4000S, 4-cyl, I made my own wires with a little creativity. I
used the factory connectors from a set of Bosch wires, (which were junk wires)
 and used a stainless steel, racing wire (8mm) combined with the factory
connectors.  I have had many problems with all wires except for the "factory"
Audi wires.  The Bosch aftermarket wires are NOT the originals!  The ones that
 I bought were cheap, I think American made wires with the Bosch name on them.
 Keep this in mind: Not all Bosch is created equal.  European subscribers will
 probably get the "REAL" Bosch wires, but here in N.America, the are most
likely the junk ones.  It's hard to belive I know, but...
