The 582 is one  of the few beasties that has a recommendation to use both

resistor caps and  resistor plugs.  I had the resistors on a set of plugs

short out once  and even with the resistor caps communications line of sight

with the tower  was impossible.  If you are carrying a radio I don't think

the  automotive style caps will work.

 Hi ! Noel,

                     I use non resistor NGK caps from the Auto store and BR8EIX resistor plugs and I  certainly get no problems. My 582 Blue Head motor runs sweet and same with my  communications. An Icom A20 MKII mounted on the panel with external antenna and  power from the plane via a Pi filter circuit I made.

  If you had trouble with say a resistor in a  plug shorting out then I can well imagine the resistor caps are not going to  cover this problem.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Rex.
