    I have the Gas Master leads and being thick they don't fit in the standard 3.9 V8 lead separators. I haven't done anything about it though. Maybe one day.

    Ditto......Thats also what they are called on the packet

    I love your work SS, I'd be inclined to chuck a new set of good quality leads and close up the plug gaps a little but still have them separated as when they start arking they break down the insulation pretty quick so I'd be saying that if they were arking for a while they wouldnt be in that greater nick any more.

    Good on ya though I like that

    NOooo. definitely not a drink bottle holder! hehe, that's what it came with. I suppose when they made the product I thought "how are we going to mount this damn thing..." "Stuff it, a drink bottle holder seems to work"... wonder if it's patented.

    Thanks for your info mcrover... I hadn't realised that arcing actually is degradory to the cables...

    Seems like a number of things are on my to do list from this...

    1 -> wash engine, obviously a little too graphic for some people to handle hehehe

    2 -> get some new ignition leads.

    Amongst the number of things pending to be done to the car anyway... like change my windshield... dreading that job so bad.
