Wet Weather Rough Running: Coils and Leads

[wicklamulla]

ok i sorted me udder TDM's coils and HT leads d'udder day. I used a section of old plastic milk carton and cable ties to shroud the lhs coil but used an old mountain bike inner tube and cable ties to do a neater/better job on the rhs coil, basically i managed to cover up / protect the electrical connectors relating to each coil too as these get wet and corrode. I also decided to remove the grey sponge from the airbox as it holds alot of water when wet and probably add to 'the problem'. Sliding the inner tube over the coil was difficult so i used WD40 to help ease it on without tearing the rubber.... as you can see from the pics. i also used self amalgamating tape and black silicone to waterproof the HT leads and plug caps aswell as helping to prevent the leads from partially unwinding over time.
