Maybe I'm abnormally clumsy, but I had a very difficult time getting my
stock wires off to change the plugs the first time; the short boot
coupled with the metal collar around the plug made it a real pain (I
have a '94, but it sounds like the collars are still there). So I'm
sure I ripped one, which led to a misfire, which I lived with for a
period of time (not sure of the cause since my O2 sensor died at about
the same time).
The bottom line is that I would change the wires to at least something
with more user friendly boots. The lengths on the MSD wires I got were
poorly matched to what I needed, so if I did it again I probably would
get a generic MSD set and make up my own lengths (though there may be
down-sides to that, so I would be happy to hear comments).
