[GReY_CVC]

mite sound stoopid... but yehh i neva changed sparkies be4 i only kno basic fings like changing oil n oil filter balblabla.... heheheh.. ishh it ez?? do i need new leads??/... ne pointers??

[faijai]

dont need new leads. just need the weirdo spark plug screwy remover thingo to take em out

[joneblaze]

follow the instructions on the box. you'll need the tool to remove/screw in spark plugs.

IMO over $20 per plug is a bit of a waste of money. Might as well just buy normal copper plugs and replace them very regularly.

The NGK iridium 6 plugs cost $10 each only, and yeah just follow the instructions of the user manual, it is easier than changing oil and filter so don't worry, just go to super cheap or repco and grap a $10 spark plug wrech set then you'll be fine

Good luck :thumbsup:

Few tips for the DIY'ers
Do be careful not to cross thread the plugs. (That is always start the thread by hand)
Always use thread lube & do not over tighten.

Just nip it up slighly when the spark plug makes contact with the cylinder head and thats it.

By the way if u buy plugs specific for ur car do u need to adjust the clearance at the bottom of the plug of is it a straight fit no hassels??

Got my NGK's for $13 each, in Melbourne though.

I think it's adjusted by the manufacturer already when you bought it new....

yeah the ngk platinum is good, gives out heaps of spark and you can tell the different straight away!!! Just had my one put it, the car drive more aggressive. They are about $25/spark plug but it's well worth the money.

Yeah I though so I just wasnt sure
