They sell individual leads but they're rubbish (gave my old golf an intermittent missfire for many years) I fancy some Bosch ones, I used a set to replace the rubbish ones on the golf, and they felt like they were made to last. Also does anyone know what length the leads are supposed to be? Cheers Tim Richard Gosling wrote: >Tim, > >Sounds to me most likely that the HT lead has gone.
