To fix it, I just took some long needle nose and clamped the inside together, by the way I HATE MY MSD WIRES. I'm switchin to factory as soon as I get the time. Don't waste your time with aftermarket, stick with Toyota, at least in my opinion, hell if you want the MSD wires you can have em from my car for free.. haha.
Wow, i can tell you're not a mechanic. Yes, genius, it IS crucial to gap plugs. Why do you think the gap specs for every car known to man has the spark gap specs under the hood? It's there for a reason.
