Where can I get ?

Morning ,

Could anyone tell me where I could get a set of yellow coloured plug leads for a Pinto ( no p**s taking answers please). Also why are some plug leads 7mm dia and others 8mm. Does it make any difference.

Finally, has anyone had any experience with the Lolocost radiator fan, it seems amazing value at £13.

Regards

David

i have used the lolocost fan - I works OK - I got stuck in traffic for 15 mins hardly moving and it kept the temp at a resonable level

I have used one - but the cars not on the road yet. Works OK cooling the car on a 30 min tickeover.

Its a Honda part.

Only reservation is that its not ideal for the fan profile mounting it on the front of the rad - its intended to go behind, so the motor direction hast to be reversed polarity.

Thanks for the information.
Steve, if I mount it in front of the rad.ie furthest side from engine do you have to reverse the fan blades so it becomes a "pusher" rather than a "puller".
