What Spark Plugs For My 496 HO Mag?
Engine Serial Numbers: OW008002 & OW008003
I have an engine that just sounds sluggish and cannot get full MPH out of the boat. the other engine sounds ok. when you wick it from idle it just sounds choppy and lazy

2005. I have Napa that tells me:
Autolite 5245 $1.99 Platinum AP5245 $2.99
Belden 700699 Plug wires $149.00
Is that correct? I don't trust those counter guys.
Mercury part numbers are:
Mercury plug wire set 881698
Spark plugs 863622
Autolite 5245 $1.99 Platinum AP5245 $2.99
Belden 700699 Plug wires $149.00

I see the service bulleting allows for an AC 41-983 gapped to .060.
Has anyone used the Belden spark plug wires? I know Belden is a higher end quality of wire in the electrical world as I am an electrical contractor and Belden is the highest priced and make excellent products.

$149.00/set is a really good price as compared to what I am seeing otherwise. they are listed for mercruiser marine 496 HO MAG on the website and available through NAPA.

Ohm out the stock wires and look for variation in readings between wires before replacing.
