whats a good brand of spark plug wires? i dont need anything high performance as long as they work, also how much do maf sensors and egr valves from a salvage yard usually cost?(online new their like 250 bucks each) thanks

 

Use nothing but NGK plug wires for normal wires. I believe you can get them off sparkplug.com.

MAF and EGR's vary from yard to yard. Best thing to do is call around.

I've got a MAF off of an 88 if you want it. What year is your car? I'll let you have it for the cost of shipping if you think it will fit.

 

Agree with the NGK. Got mine from one of the local auto parts stores.

 

Take a look at my FS thread...I'm selling a BRAND NEW set I never used because I have a 3rd gen. Price is negotiable.

call around and see what people are charging and only use NGK stuff

 

i acually had to change plug wires because the NGK's kep zapping the hell out of me when ever i worked on the car. theyre a larger guage wire with more insulation though.

and for some reason my dad put autolite platnums in while he drove the car theyre ok but they cause hesitation. the NGK's fouled up from corss fireing. another reason to change wire.

but that was just my experence with the wires i could have got a few bad batches or something

 

I dunno. I used a set of Beck/Arnley blue wires I got off of eBay. I don't see any problem with them.

I would generally avoid any of the bottom shelf wires from any of the chain stores.
