How the hell does it connect to a HT lead???

Pics below.

The silver bit, screws into the head.....does the long stick thing screw into that...and the HT lead on the end? Looks abit small to fit inside a HT lead mind....

yes, the stick goes into the lead, but i had the linish the end of mine, had some sort of stick on it if i remember right.

i just linished it back to a nice ball shape, works fine now.

Aye, I nicked the top off an old spark plug for the end.

Handy little bits of kit them.

The white plug on the right REPLACES one of the spark plugs !

Screw the long thin piece to the top of it....slide the cover over the whole lot and then attach the HT lead to the top of the 'thin' piece !

1, Take the tune plug and use it to replace a current one in the engine. Suggested the two inner most cylinders as they run slightly leaner. Note, this should be done once the engine is warm so the plugs will be hot. The tune plug only need to be nipped up. NOT TIGHT!

2, Screw extender on then place the 1st (lower) black tube on. Then the upper one (with mirror) while making sure the extender goes thro the gap.

3, Take an old sparkplug and remove the top cap (if you can, some are solid some are screw on).

Posted Image

4, Screw the end cap onto the extender and then attach a HT lead to it. Then start the engine and follow the instructions as per the color tune instructions.

I was asking what happened to the gold stars last month. We must have been here awhile to remember those.
