Product Details

CHECK YOUR WIRES BEFORE ORDERING! - These are a match for the original wires. Sometimes wires and caps get changed that are not original. Below you will see both close ups of the male plug that goes into the distributor cap and the female cap that goes onto the end of the spark plug ( note the small hole that goes onto the spark plug threads after the aluminum cap has been removed from the spark plug).

This is a VERY common maintenance item on the older Mercedes V8 engines. If they are too old they will leak. If they are not put on properly they will leak. If you do any maintenance (ie, valve adjustment, clip replacement, timing chain, guides, etc), you should have this kit on hand.
