They are most likely intended for the thread on the spark plugs.
Are they ali and round?

Kinda depends on what leads they are, if they don't stay firm on the plug you needs these so don throw em yet

You MIGHT need them. On my agg i had to use them from my old sparkies when i renewed them a month ago. It might give a better spark
