Sl2 and Sl1 plug wire difference
 
Hi, new to the forum. But not new to cars or Saturns. I have had a 92 Sl1 before and a 99 Sl2. My question is i just picked up a clean Sl2 with 159k. Runs pretty good and esp after the tune up. When i went to advance i think they gave me the sl1 wires. I looked up the part number on the box and it says the sl series with the vin number 7. Im guessing sl2 is 8?? Are there any difference in performance or just fitting?? I installed them before i came across this and the car runs beautifully esp after the tune up. If its a big difference ill go and get the SOHC motor ones. Just not sure.

Maybe the vin number is 7 for the DOHC, i think i got confused. I guess i got the right wires then.

Get the correct plug wires, if you changed them you can see they do not fit properly, and people wonder why I use UPS.

7 vin is DOHC

Thanks Derf. Well i got the right ones then so thats good. I pretty much figured i did after looking at pics of the Sl1 motor. Now i guess i gotta change the valve cover gasket. Alot of oil down around number 1 plug.

change first or you will wreck your pristine shiny new wire set
