Decent plug leads

Post by alscoob »

As topic, where can I get some.... had some of those from GSF, not really impressed as the leads / plugs dont seem to have a good connection. :(

Have seen some engine bays with nice blue or red ones and also silicone versions... any ideas

Also wher can I get rad to expansion tank hose

Thanks

be aware that many of the twinky looking leads are designed for looks, not to actually be a good plug lead.

i always fit BBT leads, and never had a problem
