Crasher 3 Posted October 30, 2006 http://www.candrenterprises.co.uk/selec ... ion=Engine £77.50 for cars with a coil pack and £87.50 for cars with a distributor. Ignore the Lake Speed name, it should read Blue Igniters and you may need to go back to the home page an select performance engine parts, Corrado, ignition leads if the stupid link fails. The proper VW tool should be clipped to the bonnet stay (VW part number 021 012 and just less than £15) but it is pretty useless after a couple of uses so the Snap On tool http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp ... k&tool=all) at just under £42 is the dogs do dahs and will last for ever. However, as it is metal, do not use it whilst the engine is running and don't ask how I know this! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So basically coilpack = 6 leads, dizzy =7. I'll be ordering a set soon as I ve just found a split in one of my bremi jobbies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted October 30, 2006 Happy to reccommend VW Spares - just bought a set of Beru OE leads from them for my valver and their order turn around was superb - very quick! I'm fairly sure Beru's are OEM..? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
