Title: Plug Caps
Post by: florence on September 23, 2018, 04:48:00 PM

I am about to buy some new sparking plug caps.  Please can someone tell me which ones go where, i.e. straight ones and right angle ones.  Mine have always been wrong and only just reach on no.3 cylinder.

Straight ones 2 & 3, angled ones 1 & 4. Thats on the 750, i assume the 550 is the same... Looking at this image they are not like the 750, both are angled but different types...
