Not sure what to name this Thread

So recently i changed all the plugs and wires and now everytime the car is started and i have the radio on i have like a clicking static. thinking that i didnt have one of the plug wires on all the way i popped the hood and made sure they were all connected, any ideas on why this is happening :dunno:

Any help would be great!

Thanks
Chris

sounds like a bit of the electricity going to the spark is getting to a ground n ur hearing it through the stereo.
not sure how to fix it or why it would be doing that.

i dont either, unkess its coming from one of the coil paks

 

[reivaxtorres]

you didnt happen to disconnect that little grey rectangle connector next to the coil packs, did you?

 

[98mustanggtkid]

sounds like cheap plug wires to me.

 

[98mustanggtkid]

they are Steeda 8MM

 

[scarface]

do you still have the old ones? if so change them back and see if it goes away. start with what you changed. Eliminate each one untill you find the problem. Maybe it isnt cheap wires, but Faulty wires.

that is what i am beginning to think i have the old wires ill start there, could is be that i got these plugs http://store.summitracing.com/partd...4294842813+401131+4294907673+115&autoview=sku :dunno:

i guarantee it's the wires, they're supposed to have a coating on them to protect from interference with the radio. but once you get into the "performance" wires they tend to do less and less of that :dunno:

weird i didnt know that about the less coating i figures it would be more to protect the wires longer
