- Phil--To satisfy your curiosity about how much #6 (sparkplug wire) contributes to your engine, pull it off and drive the car, if necessary. On the oil pressure: 35lb. is lower than it should be, even

- What happens to all that petrol that is not ignited in #6 cylinder? I would venture to say that there is a large amount of gasoline in the oil if you ran for a long time with the plug wire disconnect
