I always like to pass on hard-learned lessons about cars. After I bought the $750 spark plug wire kit, I decided to save money by doing the job myself.

It turned out that spacing between the plug wires and the climate control blower motor was critical -- I'd didn't pack the wire tightly enough, and my $750 wires broke the $950 + $400 labor blower motor. :(

It was a great car though.
