Some boaters believe that marine spark plug wires and those manufactured for land vehicles are interchangeable. That is not the case. Many boating forums offer discussions regarding this topic, citing the difference in wire thickness, the need for a waterproof wire casing, improved ignition, and other differences proving that marine spark plug wires require different characteristics than automotive plug wires. Wholesale Marine agrees, however, a key difference between the two is the length of the wire itself. Marine wire sets are longer as these must be routed around the marine exhaust manifold. An additional major difference between these different spark plug wire sets is that the marine distributors have different cap ends than those in automotive sets.
