Default Yes! You did. But..
I didn't know the lug sockets worked on the spark plugs, so I couldn't check.

Default There were no PepBoys or the like. It was like a desert.
LOL.

You sound like it wasn't your fault.

Am I the only one who keeps a full tool kit in the car?

All my sockets, all my ratchets, all my extensions... duct tape, zip ties... torque wrench

Can you tell I've owned a VW in the past?

The front plug was loose enough to fry the POS and didn't make any tapping/clicking noise?

Default Where?
And how do you keep your car from sounding like a metal box filled with metal things? I have two toolboxes.. they would slide around and take up most of my cargo area.
