Spark plug wire number 7 (or 8)




My experience with Mopars of this era is to jack up the car until the wheel 
clears the well, and then you can reach in through the well with a long 
extension in your socket wrench.  I never have had to remove a wheel though.  

I had the same problem with my 62 Imperial and a brand new set of Federal spark 
plug wires.  The car ran like a dream for the first few minutes, and then it 
felt as if it were running on some cylinders.  I reached in there and noticed 
three plug wires had come lose (boots still around the plugs).  I put a dab of 
conductive grease on the insides of the boots and replaced them on the plugs.  
This has helped my problem.

Subject: IML: Spark plug wire number 7 (or 8)

On one of my 68's, the plug wire of the rear cylinder on the driver side 
<br>bank came loose while driving.  I think the reason is because I did not 
<br>push it in properly when I installed it.  I can't access it from above to 
<br>push it hard enough.  The question is, is there another way that works with 
<br>this plug wire?  I tried to reach it from under the car after removing a 
<br>sheet metal cover, no way.  Is it more accessible under the fender after 
<br>removing the front tire?  Before I spend the time and effort and time 
<br>trying, I hope I can get some suggestions from people that have faced this 
<br>problem before for 67 and 68's...<br><br>Thanks<br><br>D^2,
