Spark/Exhaust relief

[Jon.Bucy]

Anyone know what are the best spark plug leads to use and where to get them. I'm getting spark jumping from boot to plug base.
2004 V-6 looper, exhaust relief holes 1/2 way up compression stroke, what is best way to block these.(weld?:confused:)
Thanks for any input.

i plugged my exhaust reliefs with grey marine tex about 6yrs ago and never had an issue. takes about 15mins to do.

others will tell you to drill, tap and lock-tite set screws in the holes

Dean Pink makes some good wires. ProMarine has good ones too.

Thanks guys.

Use a Q tip with acetone to clean the oil out of the releif holes and use Marinetex. Squeeze it into the hole while blocking the back side to force it into the castings. Then use acetone to clean the residual before it kicks.
Never had a problem.

I bought the Accel 8.8 wires in a universal kit (make sure and get the ones with the 90* boots) and then used/bought extra 90* boots (Summit sells them) on a couple of mine. Great wires, last for ever and look great. Not cheap though.

PS, owner says fine on the pplate and I will get you a shipping quote today.
