I'll try switching to the desktop site. If it shows up more after I've switched I'll post back here.

lol glad I could draw you back in.

I have heard from the site team, they are working on fixing the code, it apparently is a widespread issue.

I already had new stock length wires and got new coils.
I have the engine out now rebuilding it. And will be putting the heads on after the block is back in.
So the coil packs are ok where they are.
After I have everything done, I may consider a set of plug wires, extend coil wiring myself, and make a bracket.

Guys who like to be a dick for no good reason, or well I can get that made for much cheaper. If you got nothing constructive to say, then shut the **** up.

I'm not saying i have been the most helpful, but to knock another man's work because you are to narrowminded to see where someone has put in some serious work, this is the stuff that drives people away...

Many mobiles and tabs are Google (ised) either by the makers or by owner registration with Google. My wife has a Samsung tab and although she has never 'registered' with Google her tab is inundated with ads albeit she has Adblock Plus for Google. Me, I run an ancient Dell hooked up to the web/ISP I also run Adblock plus and rarely suffer unwanted ads. It does pay to clear the browsing history, cache and other areas every night regularly as they soon build up with multiple crap cookies from sites you've never even visited. IMHO never register with Google or any other social media sites, they get their revenue (kick backs) from selling on your details whether you like it, agree to it or not. It certainly helps having various pals in the IT business.
