What spark plugs?

[YAU730]

About to buy plugs for my first service on the rex, pretty standard so what to run?

Been told to use BUR9EQP, some people mix diff range of plugs, some people use all round the same, what to use?

Is there a guide on how to remove and clean plugs too? n how to cure when engine can\'t start and flooded?

to choose the sparks, you should first tell us what changes you made on the car.

 for a stock engine using different degrees in L and T. while for tuned engines usually use 4 candles of equal rank.

 example: I have 4 BUR9EQP in L and T, but I have a boost to 0.85 exhaust and intake and other upgrades

Step 1, make sure engine and ignition is off, disconnect EGI fuse to disable fuel pump

Step 2, Take HT leads off of plugs and remember what way round they went.

Step 3, remove plugs using socket set and spark-plug friendly socket (long hollow one)

Step 4, crank engine (short bursts of no more than 10 seconds each) until white jets of flooded fuel spitting out the side of the engine housings, become puffs of air

Step 5, wash and clean plugs with your choice of cleaner,

Step 6, put plugs back, HT leads back, replace EGI fuse and crank some more, and if flooding is the only issue, it then should start.

Changes to car is a decatted exhaust, aftermarket ecu, fuel pump, bov and poss air filters.
