Just thought i'd post a few piccys for replaceing plugs if anyone out there is interested.
1. Take engine
2. Remove this
3. And That
4. And inlet manifold.
5. Disconnect the plug wiring
6. the 3rd from left has poor clearance so you will find it easier to remove the backing shell from the connector to allow you to twist it past the pipe without stressing the wiring.
7. Use a suitable double depth 10mm socket and ratchet to unscrew the plugs.
8. Or if they are simply too tight (and you don't have a bigger drive that will fit) go against everything you have ever been tought and crack 'em off with a T-Bar and a 13mm ring spanner for leverage.
9. Reassemble components until it looks like photo 1.
Hope this helps some of you DIYers
