It must be a thin walled socket to fit... I went ahead and bought the kaw tool for that... there is one in the tool set that came with the bike BTW... cheap one, but it works.

would this be the one  RE: Kawasaki parts nation.com 92110B 92110-1153   TOOL-WRENCH,OPEN END,
When I went to change my plugs for the first time today since I bought the bike the LF plug, LR plug and RR plug went in with a 18mm spark plug socket but the RF plug could not be tightened using the 18mm spark plug wrench, it was too thick , as mentioned a thin walled socket would be the answer
My question is why would the above three work and not the RF jug plug is this normal for the 99?

Thanks in advance
Tim

I just bought an 18mm socket but (like me) is to fat. Now I need to find a thin walled socket.

You beat me to the answer. 18mm is the winning size.
Thanks

The spark plug gap is 0.8-0.9mm.  I had to buy a special socket to fit my 2002 1500. I believe the socket size is 19mm, but it could be 18mm.

Anyone know the metric socket size required for the spark plugs along with the Gap setting. Thanks
