HT lead set for SW20/3SGE

Who in the UK sells an HT lead set that's an exact replacement for the OEM Yazaki part pls? Same lengths per wire and diameter.

Tried TCB parts - Paul said he thought his leads had a thicker shielding so might not fit through the plastic shroud and retaining clips.

Re: Possible fuel or sensor issue? - SOLVED

OK, here’s what I discovered: The problem turned out to be no spark across a plug gap on one cylinder for a few seconds at a time once the engine was warm. I assume some unburnt vaporised fuel was passing across the O2 sensor as a result of this, and the ECU was getting confused by the exotic exhaus...

Re: Possible fuel or sensor issue?

I appreciate the suggestions. I’d really like to hear from someone who’s had the coolant issue. As I’m getting the same engine behaviour when at idle or 3,000 RPM - and from what I’ve read since posting previously, that’s not likely to be ECU coolant temp related. I’ve tried to pull the temp sensor ...

Re: Possible fuel or sensor issue?

@Zircon - I'm familiar with the concern around water being absorbed hygroscopically by ethanol. But I don't think it's a water issue, for the reason further below. Even if the fuel had degraded, adding nine parts of fresh fuel to one part old should have significantly reduced any stale fuel issues. ...

Possible fuel or sensor issue?

Need some advice, please: My NA SW20 with a 3SGE engine was SORN for over 2 years. In hindsight should have drained the fuel down... Turned it over every three months or so and ran it hot for 10 mins, just to check it hadn't died. Got it back on the road last week, passed MOT etc. Drove around 20 mi...

Air Resonator box for Mk2 Rev 4 N/A

I'm trying to do the same - refit the original stock airbox on a Mk2 Rev 4 N/A to replace the induction kit that was on the car when I bought it. But I don't have the first part - the resonator box and pipe that feeds air into the air cleaner. It's the large chilli-pepper shaped box that has one fix...
