Can anyone recoomend a suitable spark plug socket for my old ZX10 engine ?

I have one which fits the plugs, but doesn't fit the cylinder head as it's a bit too fat. It is 1/2" drive right enough.

A link to an appropriate socket would be appreciated for a socket to suit ZX10 or ZZR1100.

Cheers

i had this very problem with my zx10,ihave a 1/2" halfords one fitted plugs not head,borrowed my in laws 3/8 halfords one and it fitted fine.
there was very little in it perhaps you could rub yours down a bit.

1/2 drive a little large for spark plugs especially in ali heads, 3/8 drive and a 6" ratchet, shouldn't be able to twist the threads out of the head.
The reason Rovers have Buick engines, American mechanics ripped the threads out of the heads by over tightening.

I have the Draper bike one Zil. Fits the Zed fine.

It's just a long tube with a bar at the end.

Linky to the bay

I have a big collection of 3/8" drive deep sockets if u want 2 borrow.

Zil,

If its a 3/8 drive one your after I have the halfords set at my unit. Your welcome to use it if required,

I could nip it over with your paddle after work if that helps

Cheers
