My vehicle has done about 65000 miles. I am told by my mechanic (ex dealer) that I trust that I need new leads and plugs - aftermarket is about 1/4 of rover leads. This is the second time. They were both replaced at 38,000 miles....I would have thought that they should last longer than about 30 somthing thou each time.... I do some towing of a 2 tonn boat but not a lot. It gets lots of short runs unfortunately. Its hot where I live - underbonnet temps get up there. Before the first change I ran only Shell Optimax premium and since the first plug and lead change I ran LPG most of the time (ie liquid petrolium gas)...so it seems that they die at about the same time even with vastly different fuels!
It seems that it also has an air leak post the new MAF that I put in...a rat got into it and had a chew and now its got problems at idle on a tiny throttle application. I am getting a new air intake tube.
Cheers
