John Teresi Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 How do you make the 90 degree plug boots, on the distributor? Hi Jeff………from the 99 cent store ………I buy a pack of multi colored wire 6 rolls per pack……in this case I used the black roll……..I pull out the wire and use the rubber…….I cut 18 tiny pieces and cut the ends at a slight angle and glue the ends with super glue…….I just use a tad of glue so that is does not seep into the holes…….after all the ends are tacked …….I go back and put a bead of super glue around the seam……..then after they dry I sand down the glue seam with 320 sand paper …….then I cut to size………then I paint them with "Folk Art" acrylic paint………thanks.

Do you then glue the angle part, to the distributer post, to make it look like it's a 90 degree boot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
