• Galaxy VW V6 HT lead shock 21 Feb 2005 (Forum)
  The first shock was the price, the second the amount of hassle/sweat involved in fitting the new leads. Car was misfiring, sprayed water on leads in the dark and noticed some arcing near the leads. After a couple of hours, starting from left to right managed to change 2 leads on the inlet
• sainsbury's lead replacement petrol 24 Apr 2007 (Forum)
  Sainsbury's lead replacement petrol is 97 octane and only 2p more than 95 lead free. Could this be a poor man's Optimax ? After all Optimax is only 98 octane. No other retailer sells lead replacement for such a low price. is is OK for cars that need lead free ? Cheers Peter
• Alfa TS HT leads 1 Apr 2001 (Forum)
  At some time in the past, during a service at an Alfa approved garage, a number of HT leads have been damaged (I know this sounds dodgy but I have enough circumstantial evidence to believe it is true). I've tried to get hold of a replacement set, but Alfa can only provide a "Power Pack" at £500
• Copper Core or Resistive HT Leads ? 12 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  Hello All, Just got a quote from Audi and I was shocked to say the least (not really !! ) at the price for a set of ignition leads for my car, £25.40 + vat per lead x6 (A4 2.4 V6).

• Omega HT Leads 26 Jun 2004 (Forum)
  Hi, Is there a 'real' reason why HT leads for the Omega should cost so much (As you may know they are manufactured in 2 sets of 3 leads, each set costing £75, ex VAT, thereby incurring a total cost of £176.25 incl VAT to replace the 6 leads). I am aware that you can get 6 leads which will fit

  No spark at No. 4 lead from coil pack, when I lift off the plug lead at the coil pack end. Swapped plug lead 4 with 1, runs even more rough, (i dont have a spare lead to go to No. 1.) Put spare plug into No. 4 lead and held spare plug onto block, no spark (This sparked OK on No. 1 plug lead end

  Has anybody experienced exploding plug leads and resulting small engine fire which I had on my Audi Coupe- luckily at slow speed and blown out! This serves as a warning to renew leads of unknown age?
• Vauxhall Omega (1994 - 2003) - 96 2.5 Replacing HT leads 30 Aug 2009 (Forum)
  The HT lead to the front passenger side spark plug on my 2.5 v6 is breaking down and I want to replace. Although I have done other work on the car including replacing the spark plugs and cam cover gaskets I have no experience of DIS ignition systems. So bear with my simple question. Does the old

• Jump leads advice wanted 7 Jan 2002 (Forum)

• Mondeo HT leads 15 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  Just changed the plugs in my Mondeo (2000W), and want to check the HT leads are ok as the car has now covered 103k miles. Is it possible to do this by measuring their resistance with a common multi-meter? If so, what value should a lead not exceed if it is in good condition?

• Tipo won't start with plug #3 on ... 13 Sep 2005 (Forum)
  , but read on.. I cleaned out the distributor cap, and WD40d it and the leads. Still the same. Started fault finding, so took off plug lead 4, the same. Took off lead 3, and it starts, funs and idles on the other 3 very happily. Put it back on and it goes horribly lumpy and stops. Removed lead 3 and put
• Suzuki T250 - Suzuki coil - HT lead connection 5 Sep 2021 (Forum)
  Please does anyone know whether the HT leads can be simply unscrewed from the coils on this bike. The old ones have been cut off halfway to the plug cap, so an extension will be needed if the original leads cannot be disconnected from the coils. Many thanks :-)
