keep melting spark plug wires..

i have pace setter long tubes uncoated.. i had a set of msd plug wires on for about 4 months and started getting misfires.. it was the very back spark plug wire the one thats a pain to get to.. #8

i got a new set of taylor plugs.. and its the same plug wire.. the back two on that side get really charred and this set has only been on for about 3 week.. i've had 2 trips to the track and several runs in that time though it just started misfiring again.

anyone else had this problem w/ melting plug wires? found a solution?

I don’t put many miles on my car, but I haven’t had any trouble with my MSD wires and KooKs.

The only thing I could suggest is some heat shield wrapping for those wires that frequently burn.
