Default HELP: Problem.. Spark Plugs & Leads!

Did the spark plugs, all went well, car started up no hassles..

Changed the leads, one at a time, as recommended, seemed like all went well..

Started up my beast. Made a weird nose, kinda like a "Boom" ?? I switched off immediately.

Uh Oh!

I am going to check the leads again, make sure they are all in contact.. any other ideas?

Problem solved...

Even tho i changed the leads one at a time, i still managed to get plugs 3 & 5 mixed up..

Dunno how the hell i did that, but fixed it up, all running sweet now.

YAY

Take her for a run in an hour or so, hope she holds up
