    Can any one explain why the shop manual call for 5k ohms for cyl 1 and 4
    and 11k ohms for cyl 2and 3
    The Uk models call for 5k ohms for all 4

    Likely a missprinmt. In my experiences I've not yet seen a cap with more than 5k ohms.

    It really does say 10K ohms for US models but I don't know why, might have been to lower radio noise or something but it doesn't matter, you can use 5K caps for all 4 plugs.
