Sierra Premium Marine Spark Plug Wire Set – MerCruiser Thunderbolt Ignition
Restore reliable spark to your MerCruiser with this premium plug wire set built specifically for Thunderbolt ignition systems. Over time, plug wires crack, harden, and develop high resistance from heat cycling and vibration — leading to misfires, rough idle, and reduced power. This Sierra set replaces them with marine-grade materials engineered for consistent, high-voltage spark delivery in demanding on-water conditions.

Parts Desk Insights
At 395g, the 47-88111 is the lightest set in this Thunderbolt wire family — a strong indicator of a small-displacement or 4-cylinder MerCruiser application with shorter wire leads. It’s the right choice when a compact Thunderbolt engine is misfiring under load, idling roughly, or showing intermittent spark after spark plugs have already been ruled out. As always, replace the full set at once to maintain consistent resistance across all cylinders. Confirm your engine model and year against the Sierra 47-88111 application guide before ordering — Thunderbolt wire sets are engine-configuration-specific and not interchangeable across the family.
