Default Woo Hoo: I saved $5.99 + TAX!!!
While putting the new Taylor Shorty wires on BLUE I noticed this rubber "thingy" was shot; and spewing debris on the engine. I stopped to O'Reillys and found out this little right angle rubber elbow was $5.99 ~ WHAT???

Got to thinking and I came home and found a brand new Spark Plug end that was a right angle and thought ~ What the HEY??? It worked perfect and I saved The $5.99 + tax from O'Reillys ~ This was FREE!


This is how bad the OLD ONE was....





This is Tee's Car CHANCE with apparently a NEW one of these...



The OLD rubber thing and a new spark plug boot.




Hmmmm, looks OK to me and no more debris on the engine. AND... YES I just went out and armoraled the spark plug boot. Can't have it looking like THAT!

Using smarts over dollars is always a good thing. Nice fix.
