Parts Look Up/Help Please!

I need a part look up please I dont have it on the item.

Its the spark plug wire on the driver side closest to the driver. Its gonna be the bottom spark plug wire.

I need the part number for that wire so i can see if i can get it for less than MB wants. They wanted $56.00 for that sparkplug wire.

Or any other suggestions?

I found my coil pack and that spark plug wire had tons of calcium build up on them and I tried to clean it but I think thats why im getting missfire issues.

I changed my MAF and it worked for a while but as soon as I strated hitting 5-6k rpms it started again. The MAF did fix the problem at first but now its back.

I also noticed with my new intake the MAF bracket pops off from time to time causing the MAF to turn a little to the side. Maybe this is the problem to cause the MAF isnt reading air coming stright in...

What do you guys think????

Thanks all!!!!!

I'd replace all the wires. The complete Bosch wire set is part number 09850, available at Rock Auto dot com for $165.

Do you think this is the problem? But then i dont see how changing my MAF would have worked for a week and then it starts again...

I have no idea. However, replacing 11 year old wires that have build up in a car that has issues at high RPM couldn't hurt. I'm doing mine with the next plug change, which is coming up soon.

I figured since it has almost 100k miles I made a 100k tune up list:

Valve Cover Gasket Ordered
Oil change Waiting
Transmission filter and Fluid Change Waiting
Diff Fluid Change Waiting
Brake Fluid Flush Done
Cabin Air Filter Ordered
Air filters Done
Collant System Flush Waiting
Serpentine Belt Done
Idler Pulley Waiting
Spark Plugs Done

Fuel Filter Done
Motor/Trans Mounts Waiting
Exhaust Hangers Waiting
Crank Position Sensor Waiting
Camshaft sensor Waiting
Power Steering Flush Waiting
Diff Side Seals Waiting
Thermostat Ordered
Drag Link Waiting
Front Lower Bushings Waiting
Front wheel bushings Waiting

Most of the stuff I'm waiting to either order, or take to the shop to do. Have I forgot something???

Should run around 1500 for the parts. Most is DIY.
