Ryno Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 stock about 5 or 6mm.but thats no reason for you not to have any of the above Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 The thicker leads only have thicker "sheathing" -- It's meant to stop arcing in high performance cars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JigSaw Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 yip, mc was selling a set not long ago Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 mine are blue.ngk maybe?realistically, i dont care what they are. they create a spark, if it makes a different, then my name is edgar bowinkle (got some awesome literature explaining how different plugs/leads for the majority of the time are a complete waste of money, well, for all these supposed uprated ones anyway).apart from being pretty colours anyway....

lobotomy Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 apart from being pretty colours anyway....Well to be honest that's all I'll be spending the extra money on Other than that OEM will do me fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 exactly.there's scientific evidence that in most instances they pretty much dont do anything, but as above they do pretty things up a little.mine were on from when it landed in uk. i'll have em checked soon aswell as the plugs but ive no misfires etc so should be fine.

Spuddy Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 When my brother had his GT he melted his standard leads, dunno how that happened but when he got the magnacore leads on they never melted ;)Might stick a set on mine, but she's running well atm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 melted?that was prob from heat under the engine bay more than anything ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spuddy Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Said he was getting alot of juddering going on then they melted lolKnowing him it was head from the engine though, poor starlet got an awful amount of abuse! Still it took everything he could throw at it!So is there really no need for these leads then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 ye sounds like it was a heat thing, and if it was a GT then the leads would've been corroded etc anyway and needed replacing.i'm not saying they dont serve a purpose, because they obviously do, but all this hype about super-duper leads/plugs etc is nonsense, they will make little difference to using good quality items which obviously cost alot less, than paying megabucks for fancy colourful ones which generally do the same job.there's basically much more worthwhile things to spend your money on. providing they're in good condition etc then they should be fine.

scutch0 Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 apart from the earthed out hotwires, i think theyre called, that give a huge increase in spark!whether or not that extra spark does alot is the real question though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
