- May 25, 2011, 19:03:32 PMMy question is why would the LR plug, LR plug and the RR plug work with a regular 18mm SP socket and not the RF jug plug, is this normal for the 99?
Are there such things as spark plug inserts and what are they for?
Thanks

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.
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

- March 30, 2011, 18:10:06 PMThe 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.
