is there any screw in caps with a thinner thread thats longer (like 30mm) ,i was in the dark yesterday thinking my cdi had done one ,after 5 mins in a layby i screwed the caps in further but they was bottomed out anyway ,and hey presto , but i fitted these in a lit workshop and i marked the lead so i knew there bottomed out ,whats your experiences on the matter

cut off 1 cm of the lead and you'll be fine again

What caps you using then Fred?
Never had any problems using the Rubber/waterproof NGK type,and as Jan says cut the ends back a touch whenever you renew them.
Must admit the plastic type NGK caps dont fit the plugs themselves so well,more so the more there removed (not a prob on the other type).
