Ignition HT cables 12 A FB 1985



Hiya
I want to change my 30 yr ignition cables and would welcome any advice .
Not too keen on Magnecor KV85 high price and my car is not for competition but road use.
I can build my own and there is carbon cable on ebay at a good price.
Any suggestions ????
Thanks

I see your'e based in the UK also. You can get some nice NGK ones on amazon.com (the American one) pretty cheap. Got mine for about 18GBP after shipping and taxes aye

Ignition Cables

Thanks Jeff ,

I got a set of Cambiare on ebay and now fitted and she's firing nicely.I also put the original coil sleeves and plug caps on.
The original leads are showing 50K ohms -way past their bedtime - and the new 7K.The books says max 16K !
My problem of rich running /popping was unburnt fuel has now gone

As you're in the UK if you'd like to swap info etc drop me a PM.I've also got some new parts- now surplus which I'd bought for my refurb,which I 'd like to sell on.

Cheers and Happy Christmas Holidays .
