  • My running rich and starting problem from wires maybe?

    OK i was told to check for an exhaust leak by spraying soapy water on my exhaust and find bubbles well i was doing that and i over sprayed on my plug wires...Well where the boot meets the wire on the end where it plugs in the spark plug they started sparking where the boot and wire meets so what im saying would that be a sign to get a new set and could that be cause all my running rich problems, my jumpyness especially when its wet, and my bad starting???? because im guessing the connection isnt that great... I hope its something that simple lol any input is well apreciated also if u think that may be it what wires would you guys go with they are the taylor spiral pro right now

    maybe you should:
    1wait for it to dry off
    2then start the car in the dark
    3look for sparks, if you have sparks get new wires

                          you could always get a PVC pipe or stethoscope or something and try to find out where exactly the sound comes from
