Refitting


If your fitting new - doesn't matter what order they go back
For me - i refitted my plugs back where the came from
So no1 went back to no1's spot

DON'T drop the plugs into the holes, you risk damaging the thread and making a mess and trouble for yourself

Feel the plugs in by HAND ONLY with the extension bar, if you use a air powered or electric powered gun, you risk mashing the threads if it decides to cross thread
You should be able to get the plugs in nice and easily by hand till its nearly down

If you put it in - and get 1 turn and its stuck - DON'T FORCE IT
Remove and refit you should be able to get 75% the way down without a Ratchet

Once all plugs are in - Tighten the plugs down
IF you have a torque wrench, Haynes states 25nm
if you don't have a torque wrench, then when they hit tight - you put a little bit more pressure on to ensure its secure and wont come out

Once all plugs are fitted - refit the HT leads
If your doing the plugs because of a misfire, then its advised you replace the HT' leads, eliminate them as a possible cause with the new plugs
