People argue with me all the time when I say plug wires are only good for like 3-5 years max, and tell me to send them my old wires. Crazy. MSD boxes and HEI put an incredible load on plug wires, just because they test out via resistance doesn't mean the jackets are good. IMO if you don't change them at regular intervals, you will chase gremlins until you do.

Same with tires.

There's frugal, and then there's 'cheap'. In the long run, everyone pays.
