Default Sorry I meant 87 Maxima 3000 - 09-25-2005 , 10:16 PM






Guy driving car for months with 5 working wires. He brought new
aftermarket (cheap 7mm) wires for my boyfriend to change them for him.
Now car will not start. Replaced rotor,distributor cap, and even put old
wires back on, with one of the new ones for the number 1 plug that did not
have. What damage could have been done by him driving for so long on 5
wires (and the coil of course); and why wouldn't it start now?

They installed the wires wrong.. Think about it. The car ran, they replaced
the wires, now the car doesn't run. $20 says he pulled ALL the wires off
then went "Oh crap which one goes where!"
