Automotive "spark plug" wire considerations: There are many different types of "metallic" plug wire. It can be steel or another alloy. It can have a magnetic winding. Copper, silver, metallic and "solid core" can often be marketing terms. Resistance is sometimes engineered into the conductor for electrical noise suppression.
In other words, you'll want to make sure it's actually plain copper strands of wire and not copper plated steel or something else metallic if you decide to go that route. 73', Kent/KA5MIR On Tuesday 05 June 2007 12:38:30 Tom Elmore wrote: > I see Napa sells bulk spark wire that looks like it should work for my > needs.
