Replace HT leads?

Post by NC35! » Wed Nov 05, 2008 12:06 pm

Hi there,

Does anyone have a guide or some tips for renewing the HT cables for the spark plugs please? A couple of mine ae looking decidely poor and I'd like to renew them - they are almost 15 years old now after all!

Thanks.

At £100 give or take for a new set of four, or £2 give or take for three metres of cable - no competition there I'm afraid! ;)

Thanks

what about 2nd hand ones? If you get them made up make sure they're identical length

Assuming NC35 or NC30 - I have loads of good S/H tested original Honda ignition leads for sale @ £8 each.

UK delivery - £4 for a set.

Or new correct grade copper cored ignition lead in stock - you will need to resolder the plug ends on the Honda V4 family.

Paypal is easiest as per emai below.

These are easy to make -

Why can't you use silicon leads?

That's the trick I guess! How do I separate the old leads from the original caps in the first place?

Thanks
