What i'm saying is don't discount them just because they're new.

There was a thread some time in the past few days with a regular cold start misfire and a new set of HT leads in the past year. Those new leads had failed and the car is now running as it should again apart from a separate fault the the OP of that thread will hopefully be investigating. I've also know plugs to fail a matter of hours after being renewed because they were faulty. It's not worth overlooking the obvious just because they are new/recent parts, you can spend a fortune on other things that you "think" are the fault only to find later it was in fact one of the new parts you'd "overlooked" because they were new.
