spark plug
« on: 02 January 2014, 19:52:46 »
Just getting together parts for James to fit to 2.6 ordered all parts on guide for camcover gasket replacement and breather cleaning but forgot spark plugs , rang up and was quoted £36+vat for the 6 is it best to get them elsewhere or bite the bullet and pay up. By the way the other bits weren't cheap :'( :'( :'( :'(
