Got the wires and the plugs, but if I have the denso wire set without the connectors can I use the ones off the old wires. The connectors that I'm talking about are the one that have the letters on them.

 

Good question sir. Mine were replaced by the previous owner who warned me about the old brittle connectors that are still on there. You might have to get them separately. I believe DriftMotion carries them for a reasonable price.

 

are you talking about the clips where it connects to the ignition coil? I'm not liking what I'm hearing about those wires now that I just ordered them last week and waiting for them to arrive

 

Actually, I was incorrect the connectors do come with the wires. The snap on to the coil packs. You should be good to go.

 

Paying respects, not sure how many times i read through this but finally got done with the sparks and valve cover gaskets. no problems except all the oil i had to clean up lol. oh definitely glad I read that the clips break because I tried to be careful and broke all of them but had replacements already

 

Same here man! The clips were easy to replace too. The job went real smooth for me too.

 

okay guys, i just change my plugs with v-power $2.29 each... my car was running fine before, but i figure why wont change the plugs... now my car is sputtering.. HELP PLEASE! ASAP!

 

so i came across this picture... i have my wires in order i think.

 

can it be the cheap plugs? NGK R v-power?

 

I have always been a fan of doing what the manufacturer suggest when it comes to plugs. I used Denso twin ground, I think it was DENSP50745. But, it could also be other things as well like the connectors (to the coil packs) and/or the plug wires. If your car was like mine, the connectors were extremely brittle. In addition to the connector breaking up, the wires can pull out of the connector some exposing bare wire that can short out. I would start with those first: OEM plugs, plug connectors and plug wires. You can get the connectors on eBay for about $15 for 3 and a set of wires for about $30.

 

im gonna be changing out my plugs in my 98 gs300 tommorrow, with 150k my qeustion is should I buy the wire set with or without the coil boot? I dont see alot of guys on here saying that they changed those out so im curius because it a $20 diffrence Thanks

 

sorry I meant coil over the plug boot lol

 

Does anyone have a pic of the aforementioned "brittle" clips ? Im about to do my plugs and want to be ready for those clips... Thanx

 

Here are the part # for the clips. 1953950010 = #1 coil (front)
1953246010 = # 2 coil (middle)
1953970010 = #3 coil (rear)

 

Red, are there only 3 coil packs on the GS300 serving 6 cylinders?
