Hi group,
I have been looking under the bonet of my 2001 polo and have tried to start identifying things. I'm awaiting my haynes car manual. So I thought in the mean time no harm in looking. I'm uidentified a lot of things and referenced them online and foud some pictures.
One thing I can't see is where my spark plugs are, I have removed the engine cover and have found a picture of a spark plug on line and can't see anything that resembles one, I gather is it screwed in somewhere and that I should be able to see a head of it or is something covering it ? leads .?
What I want to do is basically service the car myself, I have located my air-filter, pollen filter, filter, and feel confident about changing them, can but try. But the spark plugs have got me baffled. As I don't have a haynes yet, should be with me soon hopefully saturday morning.
I have a few pot shot question here :
What kind of tool will I need to extract a spark plug and is there anything I need to be warry of (any tips or tricks)?
How tight do they go in?
I don't know how many I need should say in the manual, what kind (brand) are best to used ?
I look forward to some guidance. :@)
