My VTR engine gets used an awful lot.

Think I may start charging you a £1 everytime it's used Paul.

thre's not to hard to do.

Unplug all the breather pipes, yellow clips hold them inplace. Unbolt the coil pack and pull out. Than use a Spark Plug tool to unbolt the plugs from the holes in the engine. Do reverse to put back.

Do check the gaps of the plugs just incase, pretty sure it shouuld be 0.9mm, Haynes manual says, if it's wrong the heads do move.
