Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Safety First: Ensure the engine is cool and the ignition is off before beginning.
- Identification: Carefully note the routing and connection of each old ignition lead before removal.
- Removal: Gently twist and pull each lead from the spark plug and the distributor/coil.
- Installation: Connect the new leads to the corresponding spark plugs and distributor cap/coil terminals. Ensure a secure click or connection. Use the provided cable lengths to match the original routing.
- Routing: Secure leads away from hot engine components and moving parts to prevent damage.
Compatibility:
- Spark Cable Fitment: Coupling Type SAE
- Distributor Cap Fitment: Coupling Type DIN
- Coil Fitment: Coupling Type DIN, M4
Always verify that your vehicle’s spark plug, distributor cap, and coil connectors match these specifications before purchase. Consult your vehicle's manual or a professional if unsure.
Care:
- Inspect ignition leads periodically (every service or 10,000-20,000 miles) for signs of wear, cracking, or fraying.
- Keep leads clean; dirt and moisture can impede performance. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning, avoiding harsh solvents.
- Consider replacement every 40,000-60,000 miles as part of routine maintenance.
