The ht leads are located on top of the engine, below the plenum chamber. Their function is to transfer the ht voltage
generated by the ignition coils to the spark plugs in the engine.

plug. Output ht voltage is used by the spark plugs to ignite the air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber.
The ht leads can fail in the following ways:
