Found this very useful guys ,thank you,the glowworm a.k.a. tezza

try maplins, i would crimp and then solder, good luck,by the way wire sizes are cross sectional area.

seems a bit of conflicting advice here,firstly the engine should turn over easily by hand with plugs out, if it doesnt, yank it out and have a shufty.Secondly you dont need to put the rockers back on to check compression (all valves will be closed) good luck, tezza.
