Magnecor KV85's :-(

Post by Pedro_mx3 »

Got my KV85's yesterday :) went to fit them this morning :dunno: they are terrible fitting, Lead no. 5 doesnt even fit!!! 6 is so short the it is tight to reach and 1, 2, and 4 are all to long!! has anyone else had this problem with magnecor? what are they like to deal with??

even with the old no. 5 lead in an the new NGK spark plugs (cheers IanL) it starts alot better, On 1st crank from cold!!!

If some are to short and others to long, are you sure that you couldent get it working right by moving the leads around?

Take one of thoose to long and see if it fits in place of one that was to short to start with..

Pedro, If you don't mind me asking...how much did the KV85 (45234) leads cost. I was quoted £61.37 + Shipping for them.

KV85's for the V6 are £106.05 delivered to the door. Part n. 6535. i got my leads from [url=http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk,]www.motorsportworld.co.uk,[/url] the ones you want are £63.80 + 8.70 shipping so £72.50

i cant change the leads around cause the short 1 is for cylinder 5 (at the back and the head of the leads are different for the front and back cylinder head :(

i had my KV85's sorted out before christmas, the owner of the company got me to measure my leads and made me a custom set. hes taken the measurements now so they should get them right now, so if u guys are gonna order a set just mention little ol' me and they'll fix u right up. No probs startin the ol girl now!!
