Would a burnt plug wire boot cause the engine to hold back?
Would a burnt plug wire boot cause the engine to hold back? I burnt my #7 wire boot on the header, day before i discovered it the engine would hold back around 2k. Would that cause it to hold back like that or would it just make it run sloppy?
i had a #8 plug wired burned through on the header, and it would do both... low rpm struggle and hold back, crazy intermittent idle, and rich smellin like a ****! but 3500 and up was screamin good drivin...
Well mine seems to run ok, except the one day it started struggling at low RPM. Then I had noticed the boot was directly on the header, burnt almost to the wire, then i moved it and put heat resistant tape on it just to get it home. It ran ok but still felt like it had no ***** at idle

Verdad Gallardo To resolve this issue, I ordered a OTVC kit from CC Performance with MSD Superconductor wires. I also ordered 8 heat resistant spark plug boot protectors off Jegs, they are about 6 inches long each. THESE WIRES ARE NOT GETTING BURNT lol
