plugs and leads for Mk2 16v

[rowlers]

Any body have any recomendations for which plugs and leads are best to git onto my 1990 16v??

it's spluttering a bit on startup (occasionally) and hestitates at low revs until warmed up (revved a little!). then all becomes fine.

Will a new distributer and or cap help??

its a k-jetronic and its done 121K.

finally... tappets have started rattling are they OK to be left for a while or do they need changing ASAP? I've put thicker oil which has quietend them a little


Thanks fellas

bosch plugs (your choice of type) and genuine leads. so many problems come down to supposedly 'performance' leads and as such a friend who's a tuner, will only use OE leads.

also, look at replacing the Rotor Arm & Cap on the dizzy. not very expensive either

cheers for reccomendation fellas.

Can some one tell me the easiest way to find out what injection systems in on my golf??? I keep seeing/hearing different versions. i believe k-jets were made up til 87, then they went digi? Is this true? only I go on to somer site to order parts and it come up saying that mine is a k-jet?? also it looks like a k-jet in the haynes manual???

Cheers
