FAQs

When should I consider replacing my ignition leads?

It's generally recommended to check the condition of your ignition leads at regular intervals and consider replacing them every 40,000-60,000 miles, or if you notice symptoms like rough running, misfires, or reduced fuel economy.

What do the different cable lengths mean?

The cable lengths are specifically designed to match the routing from the ignition coil and distributor to each spark plug in compatible vehicles. For this set, the coil lead is 770 mm, and other leads are 570 mm and 670 mm.

How do I know if this set is compatible with my car?

This set features SAE spark cable fitment and DIN distributor cap and coil fitment. It also replaces specific part numbers like BOSCH B013. It's best to verify your vehicle's existing ignition system specifications and compare them to these details.

What is wire-wound cable construction?

Wire-wound cable construction involves a resistive core, typically made of fiberglass or carbon-impregnated material, wrapped with a wire element. This design helps suppress radio frequency interference (RFI) while efficiently delivering high-tension voltage.

Can I replace just one ignition lead?

While it's possible, it's generally recommended to replace ignition leads in sets. This ensures that all leads have similar performance characteristics and wear levels, preventing uneven engine performance.

What is the net weight of this product?

The net weight of this HT Ignition Leads Cable Set is 0.348 kg.

Troubleshooting

Engine misfiring or running rough after installation

Double-check that each lead is securely connected to the correct spark plug and coil terminal. Ensure no leads are kinked or stretched excessively.

Spark plug boot is difficult to seat

Apply a small amount of dielectric grease to the inside of the boot and the spark plug terminal. Ensure the terminal is clean and free of debris.

Visible damage to the cable insulation

Inspect all leads for any signs of cracks, cuts, or melting. If damage is found, the affected lead or the entire set may need replacement.

Poor performance persists despite new leads

The issue may lie elsewhere in the ignition system (e.g., spark plugs, coil pack) or fuel system. Consult a qualified mechanic for further diagnosis.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures proper ignition for optimal engine running.
  • Addresses common issues like misfires and rough idling.
  • Durable wire-wound construction for longevity.
  • Designed for specific fitment with SAE, DIN connectors.
  • A cost-effective solution for maintaining engine health.

Cons

  • Requires careful installation to avoid damage or poor connections.
  • Specific cable lengths may not be universally compatible with all engine configurations.
  • Potential for increased fuel consumption or emissions if not properly fitted.
  • Not suitable for vehicles with electronic ignition systems requiring different types of leads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the engine is cool before beginning installation. Disconnect the battery before starting. Carefully remove old leads one by one, noting their exact position to avoid mix-ups. Connect the new leads to the corresponding spark plugs and ignition coil, ensuring a firm click to confirm proper seating. Use the specified cable lengths to match the original routing.

Compatibility: This set is designed for vehicles using SAE spark cable fitment and DIN coupling types for distributor caps and ignition coils. It replaces part numbers such as BOSCH B013, BREMI 300/594, and CHAMPION LS-11. Verify your vehicle's existing ignition system configuration to ensure compatibility.

Care: Periodically inspect ignition leads for signs of perishing, tears, or chafing. Keep cable connectors clean from dirt and moisture. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners directly on the cables.
