Right I'm off work on Sunday so I will change the plugs myself.

The stockroom lad in work is a motorbike enthusiast, he does minor work himself, he has replaced engine in a car with a qualified mechanic before.

Recently all we've done is talk about cars. He is a wealth of good information like yourself cre, he was very surprised that the HG had gone, he said it must have just gone.

Reading back on paperwork HG was last replaced in 99 when the car was 10 years old, since them a further 10 years have passed. poor women had only bought it 3 months from the dealer before she had to replace it, I laughed reading it, now I'm in the same pradictament, lol

I will call into car part shop in town to buy 6 plugs and cord set.

Guy in work was saying hardest part is making sure you don't mis-thread the plugs.

EDIT:

Toyota did no work on it.

Car cost 1250 STERLING. I had plans to make a lot of changes to her, this has just set them back a bit.

First was exterior styling, then mechanical working, then ICE and interior.

New wheels should arrive in 2 days 1200 STERLING, personalised number plate SUP 708 has been ordered 2500 STERLING(this was the best available as I can't change plates to make the car look younger, there was some wicked plates for new cars), travelled to Dublin last week to get Limo-black tints however the small rear triangular windows are bigger on the outside than on the inside and have rubbers-they couldn't get in under the rubbers so you would have seem were the tint started from the outside (I am going to get glass company to take rears out and bring them to get tinted with the rest of the car).

THIS WAS ONLY THE START.
