FAQs

What do ignition leads do?

Ignition leads carry the high-tension voltage from the ignition coil to the spark plugs, which is necessary for igniting the air/fuel mixture in the engine cylinders.

How often should I replace my ignition leads?

It's generally recommended to check them periodically and consider replacement every 40,000-60,000 miles, or sooner if you experience symptoms of failure.

What are common signs of faulty ignition leads?

Common signs include rough engine running, misfires, high fuel consumption, hesitation, and potentially failed emissions tests.

Are these leads suitable for all vehicles?

No, these leads are designed for specific vehicle applications. You must confirm compatibility with your vehicle's make, model, and year before purchase.

What is the 'Cable Length 1 (mm) - 155' specification?

This indicates the length of one of the ignition leads in the set is 155 millimeters. The set includes multiple leads of varying lengths as listed in the product details.

What does 'Resistive Cable Type' mean?

Resistive cables contain a resistor to reduce radio frequency interference (RFI), which can affect electronic components in the vehicle.

Can I install these myself?

Yes, if you have basic mechanical knowledge and the right tools, you can typically install ignition leads yourself. However, if you are unsure, it is best to have them installed by a qualified mechanic.

Troubleshooting

Engine misfires or runs rough after installation

Verify that each ignition lead is securely connected to the correct spark plug and coil/distributor terminal. Ensure no leads are crossed.

No spark at spark plugs

Check that the ignition coil is functioning correctly and that the leads are properly seated at both ends. Inspect leads for visible damage.

Poor fuel economy persists

While new leads can help, other factors like fuel injectors, air filter, or spark plugs could be the cause. Consult a mechanic for further diagnosis.

Leads appear too short or too long

Ensure you have the correct part number for your vehicle. Verify that leads are routed correctly according to the original configuration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check:

Before installation, verify that the Intermotor 76167 part number is listed as compatible with your vehicle's make, model, and year. Consult your vehicle's service manual or a reputable auto parts catalog.

Installation:

  1. Ensure the engine is cool and disconnected from the battery.
  2. Carefully remove the old ignition leads, noting which lead connects to which spark plug and cylinder.
  3. Identify the corresponding new lead by its length and terminal type.
  4. Attach the new leads securely to the spark plugs and the ignition coil/distributor cap. Ensure a firm click or seal.
  5. Double-check all connections.
  6. Reconnect the battery and start the engine to test.

Care:

Ignition leads require minimal direct care. Keep the engine bay clean to prevent debris from accumulating around the leads and terminals. Periodically inspect the insulation for any signs of damage, cracking, or hardening. Ensure connections remain clean and free from corrosion.

Replacement Interval:

It is recommended to check the condition of your ignition leads regularly and consider replacing them every 40,000-60,000 miles as part of preventative maintenance.
