SPARK PLUG TOOL

Post by two-stroke-brit »

Hi all, is there a recommended tool with a knuckle built in .

from say pit posse or the like.

Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

I always used the one that came with the original toolkit. But I guess most of them got lost over the years.
Keep on keepin' on.
