Could anyone suggest a source for a suitable plug spanner/socket for the Panda (1.2 Euro 5)? I have a plug socket the right hexagon size which I've used on my motorbikes for years but it's just too fat to get near the Panda's plugs. It looks like a really super-thinwalled socket is required because of the way the cylinder head is shaped around the plugs.
What's in your toolbox?

You would have thought the guy who designed the cyl head would have allowed for that.

hi ,
I think yours must be a particularly "heavy -duty" one ,
as the standard smaller-plug car sockets always work well on my FIRE engines, (with a "knuckle-joint" to improve access).
