CB750 - making up the new HT leads (spark plug wires)

During the inspections on the ignition system on this Classic Honda 4 cylinder motorcycle we found so many issues, including, but by no means limited to, open circuit plug caps, damaged HT leads, suspect coils & way more faults within the wiring loom to mention so the owner 'bit the bullet' & Dyna ignition coils were fitted.

These coils, unlike the Genuine Honda ones, do not have integral HT leads, bonded into the coil's casing, instead they are like those used with distributor type ignition systems found on older cars.

A good idea in my opinion, allowing the HT leads to be renewed should they develop a fault or become a little too short due to having the end's tidied up!

So in this video I run through how to make up your own set of HT leads, the video is equally relevant to both Cars & Motorcycles, probably pretty much anything that uses separate HT leads or 'Spark plug wires' as they are known as in 'merica...

Enjoy
