Where are the spark plugs on a corvette?
Locate the old sparking wires, which run directly to the sparking plugs and are located along the two coiled packs directly in front of you. Complete on each side. Figure 3.
Do you need to replace spark plug wires?
Damage: It’s possible for spark plug wires to be damaged. If the insulation is compromised, or there’s an internal break, you’ll need to replace your wires even if it’s not yet time.
How often should you change the spark plugs on a corvette?
While there is no one answer as to how often spark plugs should be changed, the general rule of thumb is you should always follow the manufacturer’s recommendation. In addition, there are “symptoms” of poor performance that you can and should be looking for while driving, including lower gas mileage.
What kind of insulation are spark plugs made of?
It’s all in the insulation. Premium spark plug wires are made with Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) insulation and a second layer of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) for better temperature resistance and strength. They include the exact same style factory coil boots and they match the factory set in length and fit.

What kind of wire do I need for a spark plug?
Our 8mm custom fit MAGX2 wires provide enhanced RFI suppression and dual current paths for more power delivered to the spark plug. Our custom wire sets have factory terminated ends for a superior connection and perfect fit without cutting, crimping or splicing. This opens in a new window.
Do you need an ohmmeter for spark plugs?
You’ll need an ohmmeter for this, and you’ll need to know what the wires’ original resistance was. Test each wire and look for resistance levels higher than when originally installed, as well as higher resistance in individual wires (which indicates a failed wire).
