Questions about High Tension Wires and Fuel Filter

**CarPainter** · April 14th, 2013 01:45 PM

Sir, 3 questions lang po:

1) Pwede bang iDIY na lang ang hth installation and no tuning needed? Kumbaga sa data cables ng pc eh..plug and play lang? Basta iconnect lang ang bawat end ng hth wires sa tamang slots nya sa spark plug at distributor.
2) Ok lang ba na hinde OEM? Nagcanvass po kasi ako ng made in japan original nasa 750 pesos lang
3) Ang replacement po ba ng fuel filter ay dapat OEM pa rin?

1. Yes. Make sure each wire is attached the same way the stock ones were.
2. OEM is typically the best. Aftermarket wires sometimes have poor insulation that cracks, frays or melts much quicker than the stock wires.
3. Any decent brand will do.

3.) Preferably OEM, ung ibang fuel filter brand nga na hindi OEM kasing presyo na ng OEM.

experience ko sa non-OEM ht wires is that medyo mahina ang pasok ng kuryente resulting in palyado.

sorry kung OT...

magkano cost (parts+labor) ng fuel filter replacement sa labas ng casa para sa mga models na nasa loob ng fuel tank ung fuel pump & filter?

I agree here. Either OEM or NGK wires are still the best option for me.

Yes, you can do it yourself.

You can use non-OEM wires but cheap non-OEM wires would not last long. Their insulation tend to crack and fray earlier due to the heat of the engine. This leads to electrical "leaks" which will affect engine operation.

3) Ang replacement po ba ng fuel filter ay dapat OEM pa rin?

Not really necessary to be OEM. You can use 3rd party QUALITY replacement fuel filters too. Given it's not expensive, going cheap on this is not worth it.
