I agree with Logan7, definetly make sure you don't cross thread the new plugs when fitting. Its best to screw plug in with hand first (with the long socket type tool provided in the tool kit) for the first few turns before using the ring spanner,
Chris.

Anyone seen MCNews this week
Hi All,
I could hardly believe my eyes, in MCN this week they have done a write up on the Firestorm, actually stating it as a "top value buy" I thought the report on it also pretty fair although to short. Whats your view?
