Default There's nothing really to see. It's a DEEP hole (deeper than I've seen on any other car) and

for Pete's sake, use a torque wrench, or atleast be careful using the "as much torque as it took to remove it" method. You don't need to strip the threads on your cylinder heads .

Oh, make sure you have a long enough extension. Nothing more annoying than having to drive to the store when you're all set to do the job.

Default About to do my first Spark plug change. Anyone have images...

I have a '96 A4 2.8Q. I've never done the plugs on my own, but want to try. Searched through a ton of old posts and got some good info, but none of the images remain. Anyone have a decent image of removing them?

I appreciate the help.

Chris
