Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone knows what the spark plug thread is.

I want to buy a tap to clean the thread on no1 as some tard has started to x thread it at some point.

Planning to do it from the inside when I have the head off one day.

Thanks all

they look good!, It's the 14mm side isnt it?.

In an ideal world I want to go from the bottom out to ensure I follow the original thread.

Do you think its long enough to cover the whole thread?
