Spark-plug Leads question

Post by Johnny T » Wed Apr 28, 2010 3:50 pm

Hi everyone, I would like to know what type of spark-plug leads for my 1987 Subaru Vortex, its a standard EA82t engine and I am not sure what brand and how many I need, any help would be helpful.

Thanks for your time

You will need 4 leads, my personal prefence is Bosch or ngk. Just ask the auto store to look it up for you.
Cheers

Most auto parts place will have them listed but if not tell them to check for 1985 RX Turbo Leone (same same)

Sorry AP but 'd recommend you get all 5 (including the coil) leads :)

I just brought a set for my daughters car so if you have no luck at your local auto shop, just let me know and I'll give you the details/numbers :cool:

Thanks for the help guys, I'll let you know on Friday how things go with it, im going to get the NGK IGNITION LEADS - RCFE25 from supercheap auto, are these the correct leads to get? As for the coils im going to get the Bosch Coil Leads SPK.PLUG LEADS (5 PACK) - B30CRI, and again are these the correct coils to get?

Thanks again
