Can I suggest when you fit the replacement, make sure you don't over tighten it,

On second thoughts... I may have exagerated a bit. Fouling happens when there has been excessive idling: too many times for extended periods of time. I have made it a habit when bike idles too long, due to traffic, to rev briefly every minute or so. When idling for >15 minutes, without revving at least once, I can not expect plugs to stay deer brown.

You ust be chuffed.
What replacement bolt will you be using? There are non OEM bolts with a larger hex. Less change to get mangled.

Thanks Jan! Yes chuffed but more relieved that I got it out OK. I havent yet thought about what replacement but a good call that some have larger bolt heads. I will also need the washer that goes between the spring and oil filter. It was either never there or I threw it out with the old (ancient) oil filter I removed. I did have a dig through the bin but didnt find anything.

Yeah, bunged it up with a rubber grommet, I’ve plenty if you want one

I’ll have a look later on for you, just out wobbling around the mendips today with ‘The Long Haired General’ on the back.

(I’m on my best behaviour)
