I will try that and change the wires. The wires where changed around 145k. How often do you have to change the wires? The spark plugs had a little of oil on cylinder 3 and 4

How often do you have to change the wires? Click to expand... I don't use an interval so much as inspect them and clean them every so often. Yours only have 10k. Should be fine. Depends on brand though.
