McQ Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 Hi I would like to see the pictures in the post Spark Plug Replacement 2.3 Engine, beginner's guide I understand that my profile does not allow me to see them(and probably never will as I am not great with engine stuff so will more than likely never reach my 5 posts to full member level). I have tried downloading the post as HTML but it does not contain the pictures.. The actual problem I have is that I ran very low and fuel and the engine started to cough and gasp, fortunately just as I passed a garage, however since then It sounds rough. I have put redex in the fuel(which I think may be making an improvement) but I would like to check the plugs(and perhaps introduce them to mr Redex!).I had a go today but I discovered that the plug opening was to narrow for my wrench attachement. So The pictures on the post listed above would be very useful. What size wrench do I need?( I have an R reg with 2.3 DOHC) How can I see the pictures Quote
NikpV Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 if its this post - I think you are out of luck - there is a prroblem with some image storage on he forum - I can't see the pictures in the above post Quote
McQ Posted December 23, 2007 Author Report Posted December 23, 2007 Yup, thats the one :lol: Pity, because it seemed to be perfect(the text is good anyway but the pictures would have been a bonus) So, that answers the picture problem...Is there any help with the wrench size. cheers Quote
playboy Posted December 24, 2007 Report Posted December 24, 2007 hi im not brilliant with cars but have you tryied the 16mm spark plug remover Quote
McQ Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Posted January 1, 2008 The 16mm wrench worked fine, however I could only get 3 of the 4 plugs out, the last one(and I am now guessing that this may be the problem one) wouldn't budge. I have put WD40 down there and may have another go later. any other tips for getting out difficult plugs? Quote
