Brad30 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) Hi Folks, What is the correct size and style of spark plug wire foe a 1930 Buick? Where is it available? Edited June 12, 2016 by Brad30 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Shaw Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I believe it would be a black rubber insulated solid core wire to fit the diameter of the distributor cap connections. Available at just about any auto parts store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryLime Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I was told years ago.............auto parts stores aren't allowed to sell solid core spark plug wire. For radio interference. What have others found ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I don't know that they're not allowed to, but perhaps that they're not very profitable and most don't stock them. There are plenty of old car wiring suppliers that can get you the right stuff. I bet Bob's Automobilia has correct wires for your car... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Engle Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Brillman makes great reproduction sparkplug wires at reasonable prices. My 32 Buick has black lacquered wire. I think this is what wa also used on on 30 Buicks. Bob Engle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvelde Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I used NAPA to get tractor wires - solid core. If there is a Tractor Supply near you, they would have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Wiegand Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Bob's Automobilia is good for Buick specific parts and stuff, but, Restoration Supply is hard to beat for everything else pertaining to ignition parts and mechanical accessories.
