Do each of you "burp" your new wires (let possible air out of the "boots") after connection to the Opti and plugs? I mean, Is this absolutely necessary? What are the consequences if the "boots" aren't "burped"? Some of us have never heard of this procedure before. THANKS
 
:confused Huh? Like you, I've never heard of this before. Now, I'm worried! :ohnoes
:D
 
"Burping" your plug boots.

Is that like setting muffler bearing clearances or adjusting frazzlehallet lash?

I used to laugh about muffler bearings until I started working in the parts dept. at a dealership. On a Altima the doughnut gasket is called a muffler bearing seal!
 
god i love the muffler bearing;LOL.. actually got my buddy who knows nothing about cars to list it as recently replaced when he listed his xterra for sale a couple years ago..... that and call sears and ask for a left handed monkey wrench... at least half of the time they will put you on hold and go look;LOL
 
Why is it ya'll are acting like muffler bearings are a joke anyways? Here's proof!
