Is there a special tool that you carb guys use to pull your plugs? My big bore motor just arrived and the intake manifolds make pulling the plugs not very easy with conventional entensions and swivels. I never had this issue with my 1.8 becuasue of the spark plug locations...anyway, what tool and where's a good place to pick one up?Thanks...

I use a piece of fuel line jammed onto the plug to start it and to remove it .
I only use the socket to torque it down, or break the initial bond... Then fuel hose. This way I can wiggle the socket and extension on and off without loosing the plug or the extension. I also removed the inner rubber of the socket so I dont have to fight with it. Rich |
