 Replacing ECAS 'super coil' HT leads. As it says above really. Apparently, ECAS don't supply replacement HT leads and a mate wants to fit new ones as he feels the current ones are perhaps past their best. Anybody know the correct type to get and the best/easiest place to get them from? Ta

Re: Replacing ECAS 'super coil' HT leads. http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/V ... minals.phpScroll down to 'Silicone H.T. leads'. You may have to give them a call to check which terminals are needed. ken ( Note that gaudy colours are available, to minimise the chances of misplacing your HT leads under the bonnet.  ) Jonathan wrote: As it says above really.

Re: Replacing ECAS 'super coil' HT leads. I don't know about over there, but here in the USA Accel plug sets are very normal. I bought a set for a V-8 Ford Mustang and used the 2 with the best length for less than buying single ones!

Re: Replacing ECAS 'super coil' HT leads. careful how you place the "Ecas Supercoil" as the current generated will burn through the red cap and short to the lamp bar or the metal fixing bands
it starts when it gets wet arcs and burns the rubber to black carbon - running on one cylinder is the result
