Hi all.
When i went to take my Sparkplugs out to check the gap was 0.7mm and not 1.1mm, the first one (Airbox side, front) was easy.
When I went to take out the one next to it, (Airbox side nearest Bulkhead) it wasn't even tight!
Strange I thought! Then after about 5 minutes of undoing it with my fingers, it wasn't out!! :
That's when I realised it must have been overtightened, and that's where my hesitation's coming from.
So...Has anyone had similar, and/or Does anyone know where I can get the plug removed, and the hole Helicoiled?? And about how much it is??
I'm in the Brighton area.
Many Thanks,
Jon.
