Lighted spark plug wires
 
Can someone please tell why on all the lighted sparkplug wires it says not for fuel injected? I was loking to get a set to go on my StreetBob. I found a set in the town I live in and alost bought them today. I done some research on the net but they all say not for fuel injected. Thanks Eddie :confused:

My guess would be in the ion sensing through the spark plug for the knock supression system.

This is the reason, it will do no harm. You can run them if you want.

The Engine light is flashing because the system is having a problem.:(

Ok. Thanks guys for a the replies you have posted. I talked to Harley Davidson and one of there techs said that it has to do with the ohms. He said that it will change the ohms that is running threw the comp. Therefore it will tell the comp there is something worng and the comp will try and fix the problem. Thats why the engine light will flash. This WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS AND THE COMP WILL SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN.
