Spark Plug Tool

Post by StuMiller »

Howdy,

Anyone know where I can get my hands on a 16mm spark plug tool for a 1999 ZX6?

I didn't realise how far into the engine the plugs sit and I didn't get a tool kit with the bike when I bought it. My standard socket set can't get the little farkers.

I think it needs to be about four or five inches long.....

Thanks.

i assume you hit it with the air gun first, to blow out the crap that may drop into your engine otherwise....
