Default Spark Plugs (changing)

Having a V70R AWD with LPG and it going for a service and tune up next week and having a spare hour and having five new NKG Iridium LPG7 spark plugs on hand....well the best laid plans of mice and men.

Had some struggles and after taking lots more than an hour I thought I should post a wee help message here.

First I had real difficulties removing the turbo to intercooler pipe and it was not until I removed the bolt out of the end of the clamp was I able to remove the pipe.

Once I had that off things got easier.

PIC's of the whole process

The old plugs were fine, they were standard Volvo plugs and it would probably have been ok to leave them in the engine BUT after all of the hassles it was in with the new NKG LPG7 spark plugs

HOPE this is HELPFUL to someone :-)
