AM Radio in Car Part2
(OP)
Thank you for all replies. But what is a resistive sparkplug cable? Can I measure whether I have one? Is such an item reasonable? Answering to Higgler: What is an external FM modulator? How do you connect it?

The resistive spark plug cables help to get a higher voltage which helps to prevent plug fouling. The only problem with them are the spark plug connectors. They are DIFFICULT to pull off . I cut them off and replaced them with the bakelite Porsche style ones. Works fine.

The connectors are a completely separate and independant issue (but there are resistive connectors available as well).
I've never heard of resistive cables being prescribed to prevent plug fouling. Resistive cables were invented to reduce radio interference. Is plug fouling still an issue these days ? Modern platinum spark plugs can be good for up to about 100,000km between replacements.
