mines started doing this recently,since funilly enough since having had the spark plugs renewed at big cam belt service! far too much of a coincidence!! thinking plug leads perhaps as my rockers were also leaking,had new rockers fitted in march by my garage as they said theyd warped,then when he did the plugs 3 weeks ago said youve got oil in your plug wells drivers side,so i said i should hope not money i paid you in march to do them!!.hed forgoten car had even been in for this job!! seen the price of new leads about £154.00 aftermarket,may go for good genuine vaux/secondnand!


New leads from Eurocarparts, £ less than 30.  They are IDENTICAL to the original leads, except the drivers bank doesn't have the 'tunnel' to carry them to the DISPack.  Nothing a cable-tie wont sort out.

I just had minor seizure when I saw the price of replacement leads.  What are they made of, virgin unicorn hair or something?

Bit odd but eurocarparts don't appear to have ignition leads available, at least not online anyway.  I'll keep beavering tomorrow once I've finished a few chores and if the wind has died down a bit.  It's been a bit blustery here!
