Hi guys,need a bit of help,I have a slight splutter from my mx5 mk 1.ok on idle but driving there's a bit of a misfire.happened to my last mx5. Changed the leads all was fine that time.got a set of hi performance leads they seem a bit fatter also there was oil on plug two.my question is are there two different size plug leads on the mk 1 mines a 1.6 1997 mk 1.car failed nct on drivers shock,they never said anything about problem with splutter.Thanks guys.

There are different widths... but they all should fit.
Oil on your spark plug could just be the cam cover gasket leaking into the plug hole.
