[Hungry_Minder]

Hi,

I have serviced my Ck2 and now when I start there is a sparking sound from plug wires.techinician told me if possible replace it.

He is recommending original mitsubishi which is expensive.He told he cannot gurant Taiwan cables.

I know originals are better but you guys have any idea with Taiwan cables? cant I use them and any rough idea about price.

Thanks

I think it is better to go for a genuine one, at least better brand like NGK.

This is a very important part of ignition system(correct voltage should be propagated to plug without any drop or variation).

My simple advise is "dont put any Taiwan part on ignition system". i have my own experience (did this mistake once).

The engine in the CK2 is no different to the ones in my car which is older and I can confirm you can get Taiwan cables and while they are not as good as the originals or from a reputed brand like NGK they kind of work. I don't remember the exact price but it wasn't too expensive.

So if the Taiwan ones are 1/4 of the genuine Mitsubishi I say go for it, but just be mindful they wont last as long as the cables and connectors aren't as hardy.
