Spark Plug Wires

[Birdie-77]

Goldwing Docs Family,

As I work through this 1982 Goldwing GL1100, I'm trying to whittle down to the cause of the right bank Cylinders not firing. There is Spark going to all four Cylinders, but the right bank of Cylinder Plug Wires are arcing to the motor, and I'm thinking this is the main issue. We removed the coil Pack and cleaned all the contacts, inspected for any cracks, then prepped the mounting contacts to ensure a working ground. New NGK Spark Plugs were used.

So I'm thinking that replacing the 4 Spark Plug wires (boots?) would be best, but I seek advice on what would work out the best! The Goldwing has 54K miles on it, and looks great!

So I feel like a Green Horn from the Deadliest Catch in presenting this question, but would be grateful for advice/suggestions!

This Military-Brat Career Firefighter thanks you kindly!

Yep new wires and caps. Caps still available for Honda..any standard plug wire of the same gauge should work. But an easy test would be to insulation the wires from the engine..rubber mat, wrap in electrical tape etc. and see if that gets you better spark.
