Yeah, I remember Oz, but as I said at the time what *other* people were
doing was irrelevant to what *you* were doing. Simply pointing to a website
that details what someone else did doesn't give you a history.

So what did it say on the trophy or certificate?

I guess there must have been a lack of oxygen/chemicals/etc,
is that right?

Actually you are wrong again. There is very little rust on the
valves, discolored surface - yes. :-P

Why, they were the things that the mechanic checked when he looked at
the car. He stated that the leads needed replacing. I had advised my
sister I would get her a set. End of story Oz.

The plugs were replaced about two weeks ago. As the leads have not
arrived as yet, I'm guessing that the answer to that is no. It will be
rectified once they are installed.

Something to do with higher quality leads being better for cars running
on gas.
