Default Ford TX5 - idles rough

Hi all

I hope you guys (& girls) can help. My 1993 Ford TX5 is a manual, with about 180000km's on the clock.

When I start my car, it starts fine but idles quite rough. Not that the car is shaking, but I can feel and see on the gear leaver how it vibrated. I can't remember it ever doing that, until I got a refurbished distributor.

I've taken it to some Ford mechanics and some has said that the "HT/HD leads" might have to be replaced.

Question is, is that the problem? I know I'll never know until I actually replace them, but what else could be causing the gear lever to vibrate so much? It never was so bad since I got that other refurbished distributor.

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Thanks Everyone!!
