190E Cosworth Manual or Auto?

Just thought i'd better mention that you should have non resister plugs fitted(H7 and NOT HR7)

Most if not all suppliers now only supply the resister type plugs(with the R in the title) and even try and insist that they are correct fitment(because they can no longer get the non resister type plugs)

After much searching i found that only the MB dealers could supply me with the correct non resister type plugs. They were only about £1.50 each so no hardship there.

does it make any difference? The car runs great...

The leads already have resisters in them so by using resister plugs you are effectively doubling the resistance which can cause problems such as a weak spark and/or arcing from the leads.

I have also read that damage may be caused to the ECU but have never come across any proof of this.
