Spark plug caps !!

[stesrg]

Had a bit of a bad time in removing the Heat shield extensions today had to use force to remove them in fact theirs always one !! I had to destroy it and screw it off ! One out I put a old plug in it got it in the vice and guess what still no joy .
So I guess after a while the clips inside lock onto the plug tips some sort of heating and cooling effect over the years ?

Anyway best I can find is £72.00 a set !! Thought that was a bit steep considering these are made in Germany ?
Anyone got a part number or info where I can get them at a trade price ?
Thank you .

I'll have a check in my bag of bits from when I changed ECU...... might have a redundant set ... no promises

I also found that some extenders were a nightmare to remove as it's hard to get a grip on them. In the end I made a length of nylon cord into a lasso and fitted the loop around the straight portion of the extender and then pulled it off the plug. Worked well and didn't damage the extender.

Good idea that but the the others were manipulated with some ratchet pliers as for the one that I had to brake to allow me to screw it off I took to work this morning gripped it into the vice and it took 3 of us to pull fhe fecker off !!

I think in time if these are not regularly removed they will be harder to move !!
the new ones I get will have a tiny bit of copper slip on the ends
