i replaced the cap and rotor then i went to test drive the car, my radar detector kept giving full alert, i didn't see any cops ... then i noticed that everytime i go over 4.5 RPM, the radar detector gives the alert .... could the new cap and rotor somehow is doing that??? ...
i got bosch +2 plugs, accel coil, new bosch wires, cap and rotor ... is this combination somehow interfering with it ?

Your system is producing alot of RF. High energy ignition systems do that. Try replacing your spark plug wires with standard ones or get ones with higher resistance. That should help. If not call the manufacturer of your detector and ask them if they can help.

well could it be from the cap ?? maybe if i get a different kind ( more expensive ) it will reduce the RF ??
