Hi I have a VT Series 2 3.8L I have been having alot of problems with resistance with my leads to my spark plugs. Basically it feels like the leads arent tight enough for the plugs. 2 And there missing all over the place. The set I bought was top gun they are only 6 months old not even. Can anyone advise me of a good brand of leads and plugs and has anyone else had this particular problem? Thanks guys.![]()

What leads do u use ?
Bosch, closest to genuine without the price. you really need to push them on hard until you hear the click. shouldn't have any wobble whatsoever.
I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on tape somewhere
They are actually all clicked on but are definitely loose no doubt about it they spin around in a circle quite easily around the plug. How much do bosch go for at supercheap or something ?
i wouldnt worry too much , if they are clicked on and dont fall off then its sweet, ur problem could be the plugs or a faulty coil
No i kniow what my problem is it is the leads I want to know wat leads ppl like ? and recommend The reason I know its the leads it cause sometimes when it is missing i jiggle the leads abit and it works for a lil while until the leads decide not to touch the plugs anymore.
i use topgun and have always used topgun in all my cars and never ever had a problem, you might just have a dodgy set, it does happen.

I am using top gun now and they have given me nothin but hell im thinking of changing everything over to msd even the coils u think its worth my couple hundred?
No MSD coils are a waste of money, unless your running some ultra higher boosted turbo setup there will be no difference. Maybe try running Holden leads?
