Been talking to some people and this doesnt sound as rare as i thought it would be, My fan decided to chop my 4th cylinder igniton lead CLEAN in half!

So how many people have been as unlucky as me?

Never had it fortunately.

I think Tweeks sell those brackets you can screw down with the rocker cover screws and the leads are neatly held away on it? Don't know how much though.

Vauxhall do them aswell and they come standard on the car, but doesn't hold the 4th lead.

Do the tweaks ones have an extra holder clip?

my fan gradually chewed its way 1/3 of the way through the lead. cable tie wasn't moved up enough so it was loose around the fan.
