Hi all,

Trying to do a compression test on my 1997 Dragstar but stuck trying to get the sparkplugs out !!

Bike didn't come with a tool kit so tried to remove with my car spark plug socket, of course it's too big.

Looking on fleabay there are several sizes, 12mm, 14mm and 16mm with 3/4 and 1/2 inch drive.

Don't want to order the wrong one ! any advice please !

Thanks, Gra. :blink:

Memory does serve.

It is indeed an 18mm.

You may find you have to buy one seperately, rather than it being included in a set. Halfords do them.

Get the long/deep one with a rubber O-ring to grip the plug, else you'll be dropping it inside the cylinder and you'll need a wife with small hands to reach it.
