I bought one of the Go Westy tune up kits a few months back and replaced the cap/wires/etc. two weeks ago when my oil was due.

The cap included with the kit was the Bosch 03 214. The wire set was Bosch 09180. I replaced what sounds like the old style wires with the elbow for these new wires that looked identical minus the elbow.

I checked them last night and found no obvious signs of arcing, and everything has been running smooth since.

Cheers, Tyler
