Champion or NGK's ? OEM is Champion i believe, seen some folks saying NGK's are better ? Just curious.
Thanks again ! 😁
Any thoughts on, if the truck should be cold, or up to temp before you start ? Thanks for the advice ! Its hard enough running one of these over in the UK with our rip off Government ! Dont want to be doing it twice ! Apart from the awkward ones next too the Servo, am looking forward to doing this !! Couple of pics of my daily !!
Warm engine makes the plugs a bit easier to get out, but, some things in there are friggin HOT! So, there is a bit of a 'danger level' there... But, so long as you are ware, and careful, it's not to bad.
The last two cars I've done plugs on were cold from sitting overnight. My fear is always that metal expands when hot and if you over tighten the spark plugs and the engine cools down after, it could cause issues. In other words be cautious with a hot motor.

Yep, especially when dealing with dissimilar metals.... Steel plugs, aluminum heads...... Might be best done when cold.......
