Solid core will provide less resistance. For magnetos, points or
non-electronic ignitions it is the better choice. If RFI is a concern
use the carbon type.

Subject: Plug Wires
I have 2 new sets of plug wires that I can use . One has the solid
wire core
and the other has the carbon type. Just for curiosity sake I did a
resistance check on all the cables from both sets and they all read in
the 8
to 9K ohm area.
Except for one. The coil wire for the solid core set checked to have
almost
no resistance and set off my continuity buzzer.
My thoughts are that the solid core would deliver more current to the
plugs
because of less resistance. Reviewing uncle OHMs law: E/R= I.
As the
R goes down then I would go up. More current delivered.
Is this positive thinking? Any feedback would be appreciated.
