Re-gapped my stock plugs to .025.

Took about 2 hours and was a complete PITA.

Whats up with regaping?,,,

 

[AV8R]

I made a wheel cap removal tool from a wire coat hanger . Wrapped some tape around the insertion end so as not to damage plastic cap when you insert the small bent end into the small gap on one of the caps’ arms. Give it a gentle tug and it comes off easy with no damage!

Put the 3.3t badge on, and before you complain, the extra T is on order I left space for it! lol.

Added more of my own style badging...notice the metal stinger under the glass!

Did the wheel caps

Hey Kamauxx, would you be able to provide a list of tools you used to do this? I have been watching Tork MS video on how to change the spark plugs many times to try and memories what to do and I am very interested in trying to do this on my own. Would be greatly appreciated!

 

[SEA Stinger]

Let's see how good my memory is...

-10 and 14 mm sockets
-5/8s spark plug socket extension (10")
-6" Wobble extension (not needed but makes it easier)
-Telescopic magnet (also not needed but comes in handy)
-Needle nose pliers

And to gap the plugs I used a small pair of pliers and a feeler gauge.

You sir, are a scholar and a gentleman. I tip my hat to you.

I'll head to autozone to pick up what I need and give it a go. Wish me luck!

Small, insignificant mod today. A bit of CF wrap. Cause I felt a bit small ... but not insignificant! Sick of seeing dirt beyond the scuff plate. That area was gonna wear quickly.
