Bought Motorcraft plug wires recently? 93 E150-5.8
 
The junk set I bought from Carquest had 2 wires that were too short.

-Are the replacement MC wires marked with the numbers like OEM?

-Were any of the wires too short?

Take them back to Carquest (Advance) and get a set from elsewhere, I quite buying from Advance years ago for stupid stuff like this, or parts that wouldn't last 2 years, and had to dig thru years of receipts for warranty replacements.

Can't beat the Ford Racing 9mm wires. They run about $40 a set. Been using nothing but these for twenty years now. They last longer than any other wires in a van's engine box. They're cut and numbered for easy installation.

Thanks for the tip. Ordered a set yesterday.

Last few sets were from Summit Racing. Bought the first couple sets from a dealer that stocked Ford Racing parts.

I am going to get a set of those next time I do the plugs and wires, I dont know when that will be. I cannot remember exactly the last time they were replaced, maybe 5 years :-huh

Those are the wires. They used to come in black and red too. Still a good price there too. Never saw the need to spend more for wires. These just plain work !
