I need to find either the terminal ends for the plug leads where they plug into the boot of failing that somebody who makes custom length leads..........


Can anybody help please???

These guys can make custom ones mate..

I have a race set on the sapph..

Al...

 

Vehicle wiring products do the connectors

 

Magnecor will make custom sets up.

 

Unfortunately they dont Hugh.......

They're 6.5mm ones as opposed to the 4mm ones on the standard leads.........

 

Thanks for the help though all of you

I can contact the above companies and see whats what......

cheers

 

Ok....slightly different angle on this...........

Is there any other Ford which uses the same plug lead connectors (long reach)???

or any other car that uses the same ones..........

 

Zetec's do dont they? just they they a coil pack end, rather than dizzy cap..

 

Are they the same then Mike??? length etc.........are they sealing as well??

 

i couldnt say mate - not really looked into a zetec / cossie lead in great detail..

 

no other ford use the same connector they were only fitted on the 16V cosworth engine, VW uses the same ends for their golf GTi (not sure if they still use them in the newer golfs tho). cheers nomad

 

saying that i would imagine that most ford leads are held on using the same crimped connector that you have in your picture, i am only guessing tho,might be worth getting a cheap ford lead and pulling it apart cheers nomad

 

Thats along the same lines as what I was thinking . adding the coilpack connectors is a piece of cake, but the spark plug connector is difficult since the connection is moulded within the connector about 1 inch in, hence the terminal connection.

Did BERU make all the leads for the Fords of that era do you know???

If nobody knows I guess i'll have to take a trip to the breakers

If so, then you've sussed it, as long as I can find a set of original leads, just unplug them and fit to my connectors ......

 

can you not remove those brass/copper connectors and crimp/solder them onto the end of any plug lead long enough?

 

If needed, I think Mike R can locate/supply you custom length leads.

 

Possibly, but they double crimped, and the main cripm to the core is obviously very small, I suspect prising it open will not leave it in a very good condtion for resealing...........

I found some new, but the bloke wants Ł2 for each terminal........

and Ł6 for postage......from Cornwall

 

Thanks Bill,

I can make the leads myself no problems, but wanted to keep the original BERU plug connectors since they have the resistor internally (unlike the cheap all rubber replacements).

But because of this I also need the BERU terminals they use to connect the spark plug and dizzy ends to the lead..........

Hence why I thought anybody out there who makes custom leads may well have some of these terminals......

 

Ah, sorry, it appears I didn't read the post properly.
