I like this guy. Change the boots too - never thought of that. Blow out the cylinder - interesting. Thought some of you might appreciate this video.

I got it down to a 20 min job , if i pregap my plugs and pre antiseize them . These steps help ,so your not balancing off a step ladder.

Steps look nice.
I could use those more often than I like to admit

This is an easy diy job. If you buy quality plugs, they should be pre-gapped. You risk damaging the electrode gapping yourself. These aren’t your spark plugs from the 70s. If it’s out of tolerance, send the plug back and get a new one.

They are a bit pricey , i use them for everything . But they are worth it . I'm not a youngster anymore my knees would done for a week , if i'm hanging off a step stool or ladder sideways any length of time .

You just have to use flat feeler Guages and very light touch . Don't force anything. Never had a issue gapping fine tip plugs since my 2002 lightning days.

I was told to never use antiseize, causes problems.
