Spark plug info.

[jwmotors@northstate.net]

I am working on a 74 Mutt, it has the wires the screw onto the plugs. Do the sleeves that the wires screw onto come off of the plugs. I removed the screw down in the sleeve but do not want to damage any thing. And what about plugs , is that something I can find locally or are they a specialty item.

Good folks to buy from but I don't know if they are the cheapest. Wayne

Yep, unscrew the lead and wiggle-pull the wire out of the plug.
I guess you might be able to find them but either way they will have to be ordered.
Give Rich Miller at Riv-Rad a call as I'm sure he has some for a reasonable price.
He shipps the same day as well....number is 251 988 8666.

Good luck

Thanks for the info. I ordered a set through O'reillys for 6.89 each. The Mutt I am working on has not been ran since 87 , replaced the plugs had to remove and dis-assembly and clean up the dist. Hooked the fuel line to a jug of fresh gas and it fired right up.
