K12 spark plugs

[Guy]

Bagged a set of genuine nissan iridium plugs for my car off the 'bay for £25 delivered (bargain (Y)). the weird thing is, they're skinny! The main hex part the wrench turns look about 12-13mm across the flats rather than the usual 18-20mm.

Any idea what tool to fit them with ?

Had to try this one, looks well cool :msc: !

Okey dokey squire :grinning:.

Please don't look at the holes in my net curtains, even moths gotta eat :laugh:.

Rubber hosing is quite useful, the stuff that's similar to the ones used one school bunsen burners (if you remember) Are those the long life plugs (~76,000 miles)?

 

[Guy]

Yeah, think the interval's 54,000?

 

[Vitus992]

What is the gain in buying these things?

 

[Guy]

Dunno, apparently they last for ages and they're what Nissan specify for the 1.6 K12, Quasqai and Note .

The only difference is the durability copper is better conductor but less durability, platinum and iridium only durability, but all do the same job.
