I've happily used Magnecor leads for the last 3 years / 70,000km - happy with them but who knows if others would have worked as well. They were however better than the 20,000 km old cheap Bosch set that I replaced. Got them from A1 Hi Performance in Myaree (Perth).
Iridium plugs are fantastic for LPG. At times I felt I was driving a dragster. Well... in relative terms anyway. Gave me instant starting on gas too.
BP6EIX was/is the NGK Iridium plug to suit the County. They only lasted 50,000km for me though, and in the meantime went up from $16.50 to $20+, so I'm back onto normal plugs until the budget permits Iridiums again.

Check out Repco the last set I bought were $12 each but that was about 6 months ago.Quote:

Any chance anyone with Gasman could measure the resistance along one of their leads to compare with Magnecore.
If you have Magnecore could you confirm the 6000+ Ohms from the previous post, that seems a huge difference.
Go on you know you've been itching to play with that Multi-meter in your toolbox. I'll post the reading from one of my Bosch leads.
(Late evening)
ignition leads should have between 6,000 to 8,000 ohms resistance per foot........
any more than that is too much resistance......and the spark will look elsewhere for an easier path......
I just got a price for a set of the MSD leads (40-50 ohms/ft) about $370 !!!!Quote:

I wonder if you would get $370 worth of improvement :-)
you will probably find it wont run........
the less resistance you have......the better the spark you will get......
the old copper core leads will give the best spark......
you radio might not pick up anything other than static though......
and they may also upset the way your computer thinks.....
So why does eveyone go for these silicone & stainless steel leads then?Quote:

Its probably a dumb question, but how much life do get from iridium spark plugs with LPG.
Significantly more than 10,000kms I'm guessing ?

That answer I am yet to find out!
With conventionals I used to change them every 10 000km; @ approx $4 ea that would mean 10 changes in 100 000km costing approx $320. Someone else said that their iridiums lasted 100 000km on petrol; if mine last 50 000km on gas, it will cost me about the same after 100 000km but with better performance and perhaps a fuel saving as well,
