tia

or any other hints just got a set of delco wires the ones on there are the original packard ones and original plugs car has 40,000 miles
Apologies for the late response as I haven't been on the forum for some time. No, I didn't have to remove the motor mount, but I did remove the boot to help with fishing it through the mount. This was a frustrating project, but in the end when it cured my acceleration problem, it was well worth it.
