I got new leads from autopro. I think they were around $160.
I think Neil Grifiths also sells them.
Great to hear its running!

Genuine Toyota, $400ish
Top Gun, $190ish from memory
Mangecor (I'm getting these) $310 I *think*
Are you sure its not maybe an injector? Although leads is prolly more likely, prolly a coil lead

all injectors are clicking
i dont know maybe one injector could be blocked
but it comes and goes so i dount its injector
ill try some other 2nd hand leads see if prob goes away
then i might get magnecor ones
are u getting same thickness magnecor ones
as in 5mm i think they are
it revs ok just has small miss at idle
might even be crossfiring
i need time to look at it as i got alot on this week

I have a brand new set of Magnecore leads in the boot of my car, haven't got around to fitting them yet.
The diameter is slightly larger than the standard ones which means they probably won't fit the lead spacers.
You're welcome to borrow them if you're prepared to fit and remove them or replace them. I won't get a chance to drop into SSS this week, but you can drop in and pick them up if you're near Smithfield or my place.
Call me.
Darren.

thanks darren
i was at sss and i tried some leads of a lexus motor
they were dated 1997
thing ran like i dream
my leads were 1990 so i gather they were too old
but runs ok with the lexus leads
ill see how i go
i might order ones from magnecor
theyre a bastad to change so nto something i want to do all the time
i have spent over 500 on just tune up stuff
i would hate to have a lexus and put it in for a major service for belts leads plugs etc
would cost over 2000

The guy at Magnecor Perth says that they come with all new clips to fit into the original slots.
I'm not 100% sure on what he meant, but I do plan to talk to him once the car is driveable
Will post when I know
