Wanted CB 400 4 coils for an F2 1977
Oddjob:
Try the green spark plug company. Used them a lot and always found they sell decent stuff.
Little tip. If buying plugs consider buying ND plugs instead of NGK. Lots of reports of fake NGK plugs but none of ND plugs. Honda used both makes back in the day and there wasn’t much between them to be honest.
Yellow leads? Yeah why not. I did have some spare coils for the 500/550 but without looking I couldn’t say for certain if they are the same as the 400 coils.

I have just been looking for adhesive at RS , this is what I have found but says only good for up to 120 deg , I wouldn’t have thought it would get up to that temp even though it is above the engine.

I used a lot of electrolube black epoxy potting compound at work for potting up underwater cable splices and connector to cable terminations. Comes as a split pouch where you pull off a crimp and mix the contents of the two sections. No mess. It's a one shot deal though, you have to use it or bin it. One trick was to put it in the fridge to extend the pot life a little.
Stays runny for about half hour and rock hard by the next morning.
I thing the smallest we used was RD Pro 50 g which was handy for small jobs.

That’s the same stuff I used to encapsulate new lead join, then reshape to original profile with milliput 2 part putty. Can be sanded and painted too. Yellow leads? Why not, I’ve just ordered blue but don’t even know what colour the bikes going to be yet!😳
