Review on πŸ”Œ NGK (55004) RC-FX101 High Performance Spark Plug Wire Set by Bob Candfield

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality wiring harness

My Subaru (2008 Outback 2.5i 4 cyl non turbo) had a 4 cyl. misfire. (spark plugs changed 10,000 km ago) and the problem was solved. This time after replacing the wires (and spark plugs) with a different ProStart kit, I had misfires on 2 and 4. Thinking the ignition coil was bad, I put a new one in. The problem persisted but luckily I bought this cable set when I ordered the coil. I replaced the new ProStarts with NGK FX101 and they work great now. As you can see from the photos, the NGK kit is blue. I don't care what colors I have under the hood (okay, maybe not pink) but they look nice and go with my blue car. Each cable was numbered, which was nice too. The quality is excellent and they are securely attached to the spark plugs so there shouldn't be any issues. In contrast, the ProStarts didn't get stuck, especially on 2 and 4 where I had some drop outs. They were too easy to take off. At first I was hesitant to buy them because Revane said they didn't fit in my car. I had to check with other websites. When I look now it really says it fits. At the moment I'm using NGK spark plugs (I bought a G-Power 7090) and cables for our Subarus.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Short manual
