Re: HT Lead question

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

The main reason for the shielded High Tension lead from the ignition 
coil to the distributer is to reduce any interference with the radio. 
Since the car is so small and everything is so close to each other 
(the ignition coil is close to the radio antennae and lead-in) you 
have to do everything you can to limit interference. Make sure your 
replacement wires don't generate interference. The origionals are made 
to suppress any interference but if you use "high performance" and 
they are solid core copper wires you may only hear the crackle of the 
ignition. The ignition wires can act like little antennaes 
transmitting pulses of high frequency interference. It is also 
suggested you run all of the ignition wires exactly as the origionals 
were run. Keep them separated and in the little holders as origionaly 
installed to prevent "crossfire". You should also at least inspect and 
regap the spark plugs.
