Are the HT leads easily changed? (SK3)
Where do I get them from?

I have tried searching... honest!

Find your year and model here, find HT leads & copy the part number

Just the leads? No, they're moulded into the coils.

Really? I take it that means it's not a cheap fix? Thought maybe the ht leads could be the source of my problems...

Think most leads are moulded in these days.

I don't even know if it is the cause of the problems but the front cylinder seems to be the one that's struggling.

How much would you be looking for it?

Have you got a meter to test the coil you have?

I'd rule it out before replacing.

I dunno, a tenner?

I think my mate has one and knows what to do with it lol.

Assuming it is that, I'll snap that up. Thanks very much mate.

The HT leads on my '00 650 just screw into the coils. I replaced them with generic auto leads, cut to length. Pretty cheap.
My problem was with the front cylinder, the HT lead was broken, but just the wire, not the insulation. It gave me an intermittent fault- sometimes it made the front plug spark, sometimes it didn't.
