Need help with Ignition install
hey guys i am due for a new Roter, Wires, Spark plugs, and Cap and was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to do it. This will be my first time doing it will it be hard? I searched and found a MSD intall but that isn't what i need. Can someone give me some directions to intall/replace my ignition
Also wtf is a Coil wire for? The spark plugs i got are 10.3mm sport plugs and they come with 1 coil wire i think it goes in the last available hole at top? Do i need a coil wire? Thanks, Brian

They would say that, they are probably the most expensive ones they have. Lifetime warranty is great, but the advice of an experienced Honda/Acura owner and the quality of OEM and NGK wires are priceless.

He said those wouldn't make any difference so just get these. Only probelm is Autozone dosn't sell NGK wires or OEM just the crappy Duralast (more like dont last worth crap) or MSD, (Heard bad things), or BOSCH (Hell no)...ok so i get the point also get rid of them because of the issues i will have with car (Wired probelms) So i guess i will just get NGK's so how would i do the tune up on ignition?

To answer your original question,
1. Make sure you install the new spark plug wires one at a time.
2. Use anti-seize lube/grease on the spark plugs so they won't get stuck, don't overtighten. Use oem torques specs as much as possible.
3. Buy a Helms manual for your car, its all in there!
4. Buy a Haynes manual at least for now.
