NGK spark plug cables maintain a stable resistance, and excellent transmission performance (which is the primary function of cables) by means of metal resistance coils. They also prevent electromagnetic interference caused by noise emanating from the engine's ignition system, and with their balanced design. They protect the electronic devices in the engine and suppress ignition noise that could enter the car audio system, car navigation system, radio and so on.


 Construction
The metal resistance wire is wound alternately loosely and closely around the ferrite core to make a variable pitch coil, and on top of this there is a special insulating layer.

 Characteristic
  • Excellent transmission characteristics
    At 8 kΩ/m, the cable has half the resistance value of the kind of original cable (16 kΩ/m), which means excellent transmission performance with little loss.
  • Excellent effects in preventing electromagnetic noise
    By using metal resistance wire with variable pitch winding (loose and close winding) and a ferrite core, we have achieved excellent electromagnetic noise prevention effects over a wide range from low to high frequencies. This provides a superb countermeasure against noise affecting the electronic devices in the engine, the car audio system, the car navigation system and so on.
  • Exceptional durability
    Because metal resistance wire is used there is no variation in the resistance value over long periods of use and the cable has excellent durability.
  • Excellent insulating material
    Heat resistant rubber is used. For models where resistance to heat is particularly important, silicone rubber is used. This means that the cables can be used under any driving conditions.

INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
! Before replacement work, please be sure to stop engine and confirm engine has got cool sufficiently.
! In case engine is not cold enough, it is advised to work carefully with suitable measure such as use of gloves to avoid burns.
! Remove the used plug cables by hand,by grasping and pulling straight on the plug cover.
! If it is hard to remove cables, remove by rotating the plug cover from side to side and pulling straight.
! Do not pull on the cord. Do not swing the plug covers from side to side. It is cause that parts come out and cutting of cord.
! The use of pliers or pinching tools on the plug covers may cause damage to them, and/or voltage leak.
! Install all covers(plug and coil side)securely. A loose or improper connection may cause water intrusion and/or voltage leak.
INSTALLATION
1. To avoid misinstallation, removal or installation by one cable at a time is advised.
2. The new NGK cables have been numbered, indicating the cylinder to which they must be installed.
Refer to these numbers when installing the new cables.
3. For distributor type ignitions:If couplers exist,these must be reused.
