Spark plug socket

(1/2) > >>

Hi,

Can anyone tell me where I can find a spark plug socket that will fit the middle two plugs?

Cheers

Allan

I've just been reminded how much I hate messing about with points, the scimitar was bad enough till I went electronic but 2 little fiddly sets is even worse.

matthewmosse:
Lathe and make it fit that way (if the physical size of a sockett you have is the problem), the plug spanner size seems to be a bit difficult to get outside of a sockett set. A good hardware shop should stock then individually though. Plug spanners are sized by thread diameter it seems, the 500 /550's use a 12 mm one.

David Silver do a plug spanner.

I bought an individual socket but it's too bulky and I don't have a lathe. I'll try silvers.

shame your not closer, I could thin a sockett down easily enough, had to do it for swing arm bearings on my beemers before now.
