[DML] Re: Electrical

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This will not work well on a Delorean. The ignition wires extend
deeply into wells where they connect to the spark plugs. If the wires
break down  inside the wells or there is water in there because the
wires didn't seal on the lip you won't see the discharge. Unfortunatly
to really check out the ignition wires you need an engine analyzer.
The cheap and "dirty" way is to just replace the wires if you suspect
them. In any case if they are over 10 years old they should be
replaced. The rubber compounds used in the insulation age and break
down so you should not trust them after 10 years. Kind of like tires.

Never needed to do it with the DeLorean though. Knock on wood.
