 Hi Mate,

  You might find replacing your H.T. leads is not quite as simple as you first think, on some models the leads as permantly fixed into the coils ,trouble is they look like they come out, you may find one or two loose just to add to the confusion,don't be tempted to pull them out otherwise you will end up knackering your coils and have to buy a new set (not cheap) you can replace the plug caps and chop a bit off the leads at tis end,the new caps just screw into te end of the leads,so no fancy tools required just a pair of wire cutters.lets keep these great machines running !!
