EMPI OEM Spark Plug Wires for Type 1 VW - Part #09001
Vehicle Fitment & Compatibility
These EMPI OEM-style spark plug wires are designed specifically for the Aircooled Type 1 engine. They provide a direct stock replacement for the Volkswagen Beetle, Karmann Ghia, VW Thing, and early VW Bus models equipped with a standard upright engine configuration. These wires are engineered to meet original equipment specifications for reliable ignition performance in daily drivers and restoration projects.
Pro Tech Tips for Installation
Route Through Engine Tin: Always ensure your spark plug wires are routed through the proper rubber grommets in the engine tin. This prevents the wires from coming into contact with hot cylinder heads or getting pinched, which can lead to arcing and engine misfires.
Use Dielectric Grease: Apply a small dab of dielectric grease to the inside of the spark plug boots and the distributor cap terminals. This creates a moisture-tight seal and prevents the rubber from bonding to the spark plug porcelain, making future maintenance much easier.
Maintain Firing Order: To avoid crossing your wires and disrupting the 1-4-3-2 firing order, replace the wires one at a time. Remove an old wire, match it to the correct length in the EMPI kit, and install the new one before moving to the next cylinder.
