I have a 72 1.7 and I bought bosch wires to put on thoday. They Suck ! None of the sizes are correct, the coil wire is 4 times too long, and I cannot figure out which wire goes where. Does any other company make 914 wires ? Id like to find Beru, I have a set on my 944 and there perfect.
I bought them from a company called World Pac.
Thanks Andy I cannot figure out why there is 2 coil wires in the box too. Plus two of the ends are larger then the other 2.
Maybe they got the wrong box. Not the first time it has happened from WP.
I always have gotten two coil wires in the box when purchasing Bosch wires. I can only imagine it's because the coil is mounted in different locations depending on the type 4 application (bus, sedan, etc).
Having said that, the Bosch plug wires I purchased three weeks ago from a European parts house in Santa Rosa are too short and just barely reach the spark plugs. I'm not sure why Bosch decided to shorten the wires by at least three inches per wire. The box was correctly marked for 914-4, and I can't think of any T4 application where these wires would work correctly. Grrrr.
Had the same problem in the past. Just bought a set of FyreBraid wires from Performance Products for around 45 bucks. Appear to be very nice quality for the money.
