have a feeling that the plug wires on my car are not in right. i remember there are two wires with straight plugs into the ignition coil and and two have an angled head going into the coil. ive been looking for pictures but does anyone have the exact lenghts to which plug?
i dont notice any issues with the firing but hey who knows.
thanks

The lengths don't matter. Just do whatever's neatest. My Bosch set came with 2 long and 2 short, so I put the longer ones in the back where I could tuck them away better. As for angled ends, I'm sure those don't matter either, just make sure the wires aren't touching the engine and you should be good.

My set of NGK wires came with 2 long and 2 short as well, but they were numbered as to which cylinders they go to. The 2 short went on the passenger side, and the 2 long went to the driver's side.
Though none of them had angled heads.

If you have angled ends you have the wrong plug wires. The angled ends are meant for the later model EJ22's with the male ended coil pack.
