So here’s the great news: so I swapped back the old champion plugs and Bosch coils with the new oem Bosch wires I bought and bam ! Started up like nothing ever happened !!! The coils and plugs from god knows were almost blew up my rover ! Word of advice to whoever reads this just buy the oem parts the first time or end up tearing down the engine multiple times chasing misfires ! I learned my lesson for sure . Thank you guys so much ! Also these guys didn’t even send my wires that were suppose to come with the kit . The reason behind why I bought oem Bosch wires from local parts store . Just all around screwed me over big time ! Stay away from Reginald auto parts on eBay . Grab the oem if you’re going for parts or just locate a reputable seller like Atlantic British . I’m sure every one here knows but just a word of advice for newbies like my self !

This 1000 times. I had to do my plug/sparkplug/coil refresh three times because of crap aftermarket parts. I got the Bosch coil packs but it was the plugs and wires that was my issue. I tried all the recommended aftermarket manufacturers here but I ended up with the standard Champion plugs and OE wires. That wires hurt due to the price, but no problems at since using OE.
Best4x4, I used to use Kingsborne with good results.
FYI/FWIW, the Karlyn STI 8mm wires (663 for D1, 721 for D2/P38) have become my 'go to'. Easy to find at Rock or Amazon, cheaper (in the great tradition of cheap-*** Disco owners) and they seem to work very well.
