    Changing Plugs...

    I am about to change the plugs on my '07 225 Pro XS. I hear of people changing the plugs often, but never hear of anyone changing wires. Is it necessary? Would it help?

    Normally, plug wires on these engines are quite resilliant.

    Replacement is seldom necessary, unless there is "physical damage" to the wire (nicks, cuts, wear spots, or loose terminals on the ends).
