SPARK PLUG CABLES

GENERAL
Resistor-type high-tension spark plug cables have a carbon-
impregnated fabric core, instead of solid wire, for radio noise
suppression and improved reliability of electronic compo-
nents. Use the exact replacement cable for best results.

WARNING WARNING
Never disconnect a spark plug cable with the engine run-
ning. If you disconnect a spark plug cable with the
engine running, you may receive a potentially fatal elec-
tric shock from the ignition system which could result in
death or serious injury.
NOTE
When disconnecting each spark plug cable from its spark
plug terminal, always grasp and pull on the rubber boot at the
end of the cable assembly (as close as possible to the spark
plug terminal). Do not pull on the cable portion itself. Pulling
on the cable will damage the cable's carbon core.
