Well..... I finally fitted the new Brisk spark plugs rawk.gif The right hand coil pack was a mother to get off, so i think I'm right in saying they haven't been changed in a long time. Thanks for your advice rawk.gif

Also looks like they hadn't been torqued up correctly as the spark plug washers look new and should be compressed, and there is evidence of gas leakage up the first part of the threads.
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

lol Ya the end caps i took off the brisk plugs sorry lol
The plugs were not tight at all, but at least the brisk plugs are torqued to the right settings now. there does look like there was some sort of leaking around the plugs.
Anyway i went out on the scoot today and i would say it is a lot smoother than it was before.

it should be smoother on deceleration as well as they tend to burn all the fuel efficiently :D
