I have a 1980 CJ5 Jeep, with V8 engine. I have very extreme ignition
noise, of course on am only. Fm works fine.

I have replaced the plugs, and later installed high quality, carbon core
plug wires.

What other efforts can I try to get rid of this ignition noise ?

Thanks !

If it's only on AM, chances are your antenna's ground is bad, probably
corroded or rusted. Possible that the deck itself has a bad ground or
that the antenna cable's shield is loose at the deck connector, but my
money would be on checking the antenna's ground first.
