Trying to get back on the road
Been several years that I have posted. Parked my car and now am trying to get it going again. Anyone have a set of plug wires for sale?

Why do you think you need new plug wires to start the car, I am still running my original wires, caps, and coils., and MAF.
I have changed the plugs and air filter.
Just ranting, everyone jumps to the conclusion the MAF or computer has failed, and they jump in the deep end before testing the water.

Few questions...
How long has it been sitting?
And what is the condition of the fuel?
What year 928?
Was it running when you parked it?
Does it crank over and do you hear the fuel pump running?
Do you hear the injectors clicking, while you are cranking it over (assuming you have a model with injectors)?
Do you have good bird hunting close by? Reason I ask, I'll be leaving in about ten minutes for a town just south of you...and by mid-day it's probably going to be to warm too hunt...and we probably could have swung by to give you a hand.
Plus, I have a new set of wires on a spare engine in the garage (it's a 4.5, but I believe they might work on all of the 16 valve engines).
Good luck, wish you would have posted this sooner...might have been able to help you out today or tomorrow.
