I think you cant access the plugs unless you take the throttle bodie/plenum chamber off, thats why the spark plugs are only changed at the 72k mile service.

(*But I might be wrong)

 

[BenR]

you have a 1.2?

And i really wouldnt bother, the std ones are more than up to the job.

 

[Roamer]

Whoops, trust me Ben, I didnt see mikes profile text, I just saw that the leads were for the 172 on the k-tec site.

 

[BenR]

yea, thats why i was wondering..........lol....not u, mike.

 

[philip]

changing leads is a complete waste of money. The std ones are perfectly up to the job. buy something useful instead.

I think you will find that on the 1.2 16v the plug leads are moulded in as part of the ignition coil unit and can not be changed without replacing the coil as well. Magnecor do not list a lead set for the 1.2 16v

 

[mikecarr4]

No iv sold the 1.2 16v and have purchased myself a 172! just cant be bothered 2 send my details in to change it.

 

[N.D.Hill]

In that case then Magnecor do a set of H.T. laeds for your car. They are available in 7mm 8mm and the KV85 8.5mm. The 8mm have a retail price of £44.31 plus vat we do have a discounted price for Cliosport members If you do fit a set you will have to remove the intake Plenum as Roamer said so at the same time I would suggest changing the plugs as well.

[Roamer]

Its gotta be car envy mate...... or is it penis envy? LoL

(Penis Envy - NOUN: The supposed wish of a girl or woman to have a penis, postulated by Sigmund Freud as a cause of feelings of inferiority or physchic conflict)

 

[Roamer]

Hahaha that stopped that thread LoL

 

[ChavyBoy]

AFAIK all the leads do is look nice dont they ?

 

[BenR]

They have different construction and do work better, but were not exactly taxing them.

 

[McBunny]
