Much more than that. Look at the right angles, those are deliberately drawn in.
4 of the 6 spark plug cables use right angle connectors, while 2 of them connect straight in.
We got a new set of cables coming in, because cable/cylinder #6 took a shit.
Gotta purchase a whole set though right? So, given that every cable is a bit different, I figured I’d more or less formally document them before the new ones come in…
I remember when you could buy a spark plug wiring kit that would let you make your own wires. It would have the high tension wire, the metal connector clips and various rubber boots. Some Assembly Required after purchase.
You could simply make and replace a wire in your situation. Very handy when working on a 30 year old tractor.
I asked him if he still has his old plug wires from his old '95 Buick Park Avenue for that very reason.
Hell, they’re both products of GMC, and I’ve rebuilt plug wires before, so it’s not like rocket surgery to me.
But sadly, we couldn’t locate those old cables, and even if we did, it’s the difference between an entirely electronic ignition vs a mechanical distributor, so even if I found those old spare parts, the rubber boots and connectors probably wouldn’t match up…
