Any one know any places to get cheap parts??

Copper. That's why they last forever.

if only they did last forever!
the insulation develops cracks and they leak spark!

I'm not talking about their generic length leads, im talking the kits they make for individual cars.

I had topgun leads on my alfa v6 and they fit as good as the factory bosch leads, even the boot design was better!

[Tim]

this was a custom kit that was labelled as specific for my car and ordered especially

Are you sure that they were originals?
In 30 years I have never seen one fail.

yep they were originals. its a common problem on vr6s. maybe its due to the extreme heat from where they live.

hm just looking at the topgun site. says for the vr6 they use a metal shielded boot as per oem leads now.. maybe thats new since i returned mine.. that was a few years ago.

really, well that sucks. what part didnt fit?

[Tim]

the boot that fits over the end of the spark plugs. seems they have revised it tho as per my last post

[BlackVr6ix]

good because i have a set on order!

Are you sure that it's not just the connctor at the spark plug end that fails?

dont remember where mine cracked. But i was able to wrap in in electrical tape temporarily till i got some new leads.
