plug gaps

[Ritchma]

Isn't there a more suitable spark plug if you're running way more power? I'm going to pull out my friend's spark plugs as he wants to change them and previous owner had no idea what's in it. I guess it's around 230hp +

We just tried to pull one spark plug out to see what's in it but don't have suitable tool to get it out :/ What size socket do I need ?

[HAR80N]

i use a 5/8 sparkplug socket and you can use BKR7E plugs gapped to 28thou they are cheap and prb the best

Thanks I get my friend to buy the socket this weekend. We were going through the engine bay today. I completely forgot how annoying vw group cars are. Every connector works differently and every single bolt and screw is different as well. I used to have modified audi A4 1.8t back in Europe. It was the same. Japanese cars are so much easier to work on...

i find the polo pretty easy to work on i love the how its build jap cars are pretty easy to but bolts snap on them alot

I service my car myself and I've never snap any bolts except the ones those in exhaust manifold for heat shield.
Anyway we just got one spark plug out and it is NGK R BKUR7ET. Are they any good?

[HAR80N]

are they like the 3 prong plugs there not the right plugs

I have always used NGK plugs. PFR 6Q IIRC. With no problems and my Polo has a Stage 2 tune from Gav. I have generally changed them every 60,000k's and I now have over 165,000k's up.
