Hi Guys...

I'm getting some arching from my plug leads, not sure which one yet, what would be a good replacement?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Thanks for your help in advance,

What difference would they make?

'Cos at £64 for 3, they seem quite expensive!!

How much are standard ones and where can I get them from?

Thanks,

Mike

I was about to ask the same question..

I thought (wrongly because you wouldn't have posted otherwise) that since it is a V6 that there are 6 spark plugs (which is correct :thumbsup: ), it would need six leads one for each spark plug (Incorrect but why????? /pan )...

Thanks,

Mike :thumbsup:

yesh you would need two sets

feck no!!!!

One set of 3!

The front three plugs are fed directly by the coils, the back three need wires from the coils.

YOU ONLY NEED 3 WIRES!
