Nic Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Nic pointed me at this recently: http://mkiv.com/techarticles/spark_plugs/index.html Only thing I would add to that guide would be to buy a set of coil pack connectors and replace these at the same time, if they are the factory fitted ones they will be very brittle by now and will disintegrate when you try to unplug.

Duffman Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 bought some IK22's going to be going BPU 1.2bar shortly...still got BCC, cat-back, walbro pump to fit Will these plugs do before and after the mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Very easy, I did mine at south mimms services under the BP petrol station price sign at night Yes once you know how it is easy, first time I did mine many years ago I made the mistake of not buying the 2 breather pipes or coil pack connectors first, lesson learnt when the pipes split and 2 connectors disintegrated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 wheres the best place to get these Nic and whats the price? Do a search for "coil pack" and you'll find others that have bought them from Paul Whiffin. Don't forget about the two breather hoses, it should mention them in the guide.

SteveR Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I got mine from my local Toyota; 6 coil pack connectors were about £36 and the 2 hoses another £10ish (total). I needed them in a rush so didn't shop around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yes once you know how it is easy, first time I did mine many years ago I made the mistake of not buying the 2 breather pipes or coil pack connectors first, lesson learnt when the pipes split and 2 connectors disintegrated Its much easier to remove the pipes on a warm engine, when cold those pipes are a real PITA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Its much easier to remove the pipes on a warm engine, when cold those pipes are a real PITA As described in the mkiv.com guide, I found that pliers + twist action = easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
