So i have a 1998 Land Rover disco and i want to upgrade the wires and plugs But on apex it says that the 8mm wont fit on a 98...True?

How hard of a DYI job is this?

 

Also Also is one set 4? or is it the complete 8?

 

A complete set of plug wires is 8, and they sell them for the '98.
For a never done it before person it will take 2 hrs or so, I can do my truck plugs and wires in under a hour.

 

The same wires fit your 98 as fit any D1 with the 4.0. Changing the plugs and wires is a simple process but take your time and do one wire at a time so you don't cross wires. The hardest part of the job is fitting the larger 8mm wires into the holders for the factory 7mm. Takes a little force but it can be done.

 

hammer and duct tape

 

Dont forget the torch too.

 

Per Linda at Apex the correct part number for 4.0 Disco I Magnecors is 80142. On their website you would choose 99 Disco I 4.0.

I ordered mine yesterday and the discount code does not apply to magnecors.

 

FWIW, if you're talking about Bosch Platinums, there have been a lot of reported problems with using those in D1's. A few people say they haven't had issues.

 

Didnt you say that you used the discount? Or was it somebody else?

 

I'm using NGK Platinums and Magnecor right now. They were a definite upgrade over the STI wires and Champion plugs.

Get some dielectric grease and use plenty of it on the boots.
