HT lead query

Hey Guys.

I recently ordered some HT leads from the UK for my V6 1998 facelift. When they arrived I went to fit them and the numbers regarding plug order are totally different to the ones on my bongo and the lengths are different also. Am I right in thinking the new leads could be for a 1999 Bongo instead and is the 1999 Bongo running a different V6 engine. I did think about pulling them all off and pairing up the lengths to see if they would fit. The numbers won't match up though. Is this a bad idea?

cheers
Mike

As far as I know all V6's use the same HT leads.

Are the ones you bought gen Mazda ??? (about £180 for full set of 7)

If not gen..that could be the problem.

Both the V6's use the same engine (with very small tweaks). The leads all fit.

Hi,

Just match with the old leads and renumber them.


PS you dont really need numbers on them,if you know number 1 lead,the firing order and the rotation of the arm,numbered leads are a luxury. :lol:

Cheers.

All sorted thanks guys it looks like a couple of leads were numbered incorrectly. That's what you get if you pay 50 pounds for 7 leads (non geniune).
