I noticed the other day the my new spark plug wires are having the outer covering melt/burn off and am concerned about the life of the wires. I tried to place the wires as far from the exhaust manifold as possible. Can anyone help me on what to  make for a heat shield and has anyone tried these heat shield stockings over the sparkplug wires. Thanks

Are your wires in the factory locations? Is your car overheating? Are you using quality wires? Did your car originally have a heat shield?
