So, the threads on my spark plug holes have failed/been damaged, tbh i dont have a forking clue what has caused this. Basically, i was driving along on night, and the spark plug and lead fell out causing it to run on 3 cylinders obviously. Just screwed the plug back in an tightened it, all was fine, this was about a week and a bit ago.
Then today, it happened again, i dont know whether a combination of the rough rural roads and coilovers has caused this or what, but then after putting it in for the second time this morning. I drove half way to work and then it happened again. Except this time, not expecting it to have happened 20kms after the last incident, I went to replace the plug and the hole seems to have no thread, it wont hold the plug.
Got the car towed home 15km, was lucky, flagged down a towie and he ended up doing a cashie for me. Cars currently sitting in the driveway and im well and truly over it for the day.
Regardless, I have no idea what the fork im gonna do now ladies and gents, and advice or tips would be appreciated. Its a 1998 ej22, if that makes a difference at all.
Cheers guys, Meadyy.
