Aside from just looking nice, it won't do much for your car. Also chances are a year or so down the road, the HT wires will give you problems either by corroding or the insulation starts to crack and "leak" voltage out.

The purpose of my inquiry is not to add power or aesthetic to my ride.
It is to solve the current problem I have with my ride.
The problem is with regards to very hard starting when the ride is left
idle for at least 5 hrs. (I usually have this problem when overnight parked). Unless you will pump the pedal a number of times before engaging the ignition switch, expect that it will not start. When I browse around
regarding this problem, I found a common cause...that is, the OEM sparkplug and High Tension wire are performing below par.....or of poor quality, thus they suggest to change these to aftermarket brands. If this still does not solve the problem, the next step is to have the fuel injectors
be checked.
So,after stating my problem, does anyone know of any aftermarket high tension wire for my ride?not necessarily the sport performance types.....

Have you checked if the sparkplugs are gapped properly?

I assume you had your Kia Rio checked with regards to this problem and the mechanics can't find the cause at the Kia casa?

Have you tried visiting service shops like SPEEDYFIX or SPEEDLAB for their mechanics to diagnose the problem for you?

I though pumping the gas pedal prior to starting only works in carbureted engines?

- yup...I thought so,too...I did it just out of frustration and surprisingly, it worked....

*GH
- you got it right there....the casa says that they can't find the problem even after connecting their diagnostic tools.. I specifically told them to let the ride idle overnight or after 5hours....I doubt they followed that.....they just told me that they re-gapped and cleaned the sparkplugs.....it worked for a month then the problem came back....
As for the speedyfix and speedylab, unfortunately, we don't have those
shops here in Cebu.

hi tension wires/cables?
they're so common.
consult the yellow pages, po. ask for hi tension cables for fortuner, at baka vvti for vios or altis ang ibigay sa inyo..
or, you can just walk into a well-stocked auto parts store. you may choose generic or oem. and the price range is huge, as is the quality.

but, why do you want to replace yours?
