Burning fuel is the key to generating power for your engine. In order to produce power, your engine burns a mixture of fuel and oxygen in your combustion cylinders, which is ignited by the spark from your spark plugs. Electricity is fed to your spark plugs from your distributor through your Chevy K3500 spark plug wires.
One of the many small components in your engine that has a big job to perform, your K3500 spark plug wires convey tens of thousands of volts at once, and fire your spark plugs hundreds of times per minute. As you can imagine, this means your spark plug wires have to be seamless and in great shape. The thick silicon jacket of your Chevy K3500 spark plug wires ensures that all that juice is contained to the wires.
Over time, however, your K3500 spark plug wires will become worn through use. Cracks can develop in the exterior or interior of the jacket, or the wires themselves may become damaged. Other than visible cracks, some of the signs of faulty spark plug wires include dirty or blackened spark plugs, rough engine idling, misfiring, and detonations. If your engine is experiencing these symptoms, your Chevy K3500 spark plug wires may be to blame. You should change your K3500 spark plug wires with every engine tune-up, as well as whenever you change your spark plugs.
