Spark Plug Change-Out: Get That Spark Back! (NGK Featured)
> Spark plugs: tiny but mighty! They light the fire in your classic Jag or Falcon GT's belly. Over time, they get clogged up with carbon and generally worn out. That's when the misfires and rough idling start. Nobody wants that!
Uh Oh, Sounds Like You've Got These Symptoms?
• Engine's misfiring, especially when you put your foot down.
• Idling like a tractor, not a smooth purr.
• Fuel bills are suddenly through the roof.
• Engine's a pain to start, especially on those cold mornings.
• That pesky "check engine" light is glaring at you.
Will it pass WOF?
Dodgy spark plugs mean dodgy emissions. And dodgy emissions mean a big fat WOF failure. Keep 'em sweet for a pass, mate.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you dive in, grab these essentials to make the job smoother and safer:
• Safety First: Always wear safety glasses to protect your peepers from flying debris. And nitrile gloves will keep your hands clean and free from grease. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
• Cleanliness is Key: Give those spark plug holes a good blast with Brake Cleaner before you pull the old plugs out. This stops any crud from falling into the cylinders.
• Protection: A dab of anti-seize on the new spark plug threads prevents them from seizing in the head. Makes life easier next time around!
Expert Recommendation
Swapping out your spark plugs regularly keeps your classic Falcon or Jag running sweet as a nut and saves you fuel. Let those plugs go too long, and you're asking for trouble. Pop into Bob's Shop, and we'll sort you out with the right plugs for your ride!
Fitment Notes
Make sure you gap those plugs right! Check your car's service manual for the correct gap setting. Some engines are fussy and need specific heat ranges too.
Bob's got your back!
