Changing plugs and wires
#1
01 ecsb 5.3 sierra w/ 130,000 miles on original plugs/wires. Truck runs good and still has the same mpg as when I got it, just seems to sumble a lil at idle sometimes. Looking for advice on plugs and wires, was thinking of going back w/ AC Delco.
thanks

+1 for TR55's. Just changed mine a week ago; it seems to go into idle much faster after startup and runs a little smoother. Gapped them at .055. I have 80k on my truck. Also changed the wires too, but just got an OEM set with 25k from a friend who replaced his with MSD wires.

I put on TR55's and MSD wires when I bought my truck as part of my base-lining its maintenance. The plugs were like $20 from the local autoparts store, and the wires were $60(?).
Many say MSD's are a waste, and they really are probably overkill, but they do spec out with less resistance than the stockers by a decent enough factor. Will that really make a difference when the wire is a whole 8"-10"? No, not really, but whatever. $60 aint much in the grand scheme of things.

I bought these 8.5mm plug wires cause they look nicer than stock and probably perform a little better since they are thicker. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWN:IT&ih=010
