Need your bloody head reading.

i'll be getting the next set on t'interweb. most of the bloody motorfactors places in my area, nor halfrauds with it's ****ty stock (unless you want a cycle pump or cycle helmet) had any in stock.

I gave up trying to get a compression tester locally and got that on line as no one carried them in stock in the area.

I don't know if i'm living in an automotive comparison to the antarctic, but it's hard pushed to get anything locally at a reasonable price.

Use standard plugs at £15.00 a set and clean and gap them more often. Even considering buy spark plugs from Halfrauds even if you have a trade card is a ridiculous notion.

Isn't there a Eurocarparts near you? they'll have them - at a reasonable price too.

yeah but the air filters dont fit the 4.6 and you dont need the fuel filter either

domino · May 3, 2015

I found that out after I bought it. Annoying that they don't provide that info on their site tho!
