Plug Leads & Coil packs - 650

We're into cosmetic things now!

The plug leads really need to be replaced, as we have 2 orange (well sort of) leads and 2 black leads, with 2 different coil packs.

The black coil pack looks like the leads can be changed easily (there is a plastic clip that can be removed), but the beige coil pack (probably original as it has orange leads) doesnt!

Would I be right in thinking that the leads screw in? Or is it going to be a complete coilpack/leads replacement?

I can get the orange cable, and I'd like to have a matching set of leads (the orange ones are looking more black these days).

Can anyone confirm that the leads will screw out of the end of the coilpack?

I don't want to try, in case it ends up in more expense!

Cheers,

J

The beige pack with orange leads is original and dosen't screw in.

Well, there is no misfire or owt.....

I'll have to clean the leads up best I can, until such a time as the leads break down and the whole lot needs replacing!

Bum!

get some heat shrink, put it over all 4 ht leads and gently heat it to make it shrink to fit, hey presto, matching ht leads. and it comes in a vast array of colours!

That's an idea John!

And I know exactly where I can lift some of that from, too :-)

Thanks!
