bit of a moment, fitted 2 seasons ago but had self tightened. top half just snapped off. had to remove rocker cover to get better access and use a thread extractor..

good excuse to paint rocker covers, any recommendations for what paint..

Good job !!! I always put a bit of copper grease on the plugs when I fit them !!! Stops the sticking in place .
