I use the Ford Motorcraft ones.

Although the last set I got about a month ago were black instead of red. Apparently Ford don't make a red set anymore

Ford are deffo the best

Black ones from Ford? I shall investigate, thanks. Were they dear, they 8mm?

Nigel - I got some cheapo FRST leads to get the car running, we were able to take the extensions off, they just unclipped mate.

Cheers

Sorry i'm thinking back to when you was going to run a fuel accumulator with EFI don't know how i mixed that one up.
My mistake.

Magnecore do black leads but there not that great, just a standard run of the mill lead.

Ford do them for the FRSt.. They are red leads. These look smoth at the top whereas the 2i ones are different.

Don't believe them if tey tell you they are the same as 2i ones.. they are lying.

The only other way I found to solve it was to use the DEI Sleeving. They do that in all colours, but you need to Boots off to be able to fit it. I dont know about you, but I daren't pull the boots off a £££ set of Magnecor Leads for fear of pulling the connectors off.
