Could I Have Damaged My Spark Plugs On Install?
Could I Have Damaged My Spark Plugs On Install?
When I changed the spark plugs on my KA, they sort of fell out of the wrench socket and into place (Is it me or do the spark plugs sit a long way down in?), then I torqued them down like regular. I was wondering since I changed them out with NGK Iridium IX’s could I have damaged the tip or messed up the gap when they dropped into place? The car seems to run just fine and very smooth, this is just something I want to double check to absolutely make sure. Would I have noticed if they were damaged or the gap was changed?
