Did oil, filters, plugs, coolant today.

3 1/2 hours no major issues. Plugs were a little stiff but a nice mix of various 3/8" extensions (some wobble some straight) really helped. Most of the skin still on my knuckles so that makes a change.

Got just over 8 litres oil out (and back in )

Having had some faff with my Range its nice to have something go so smoothly.

What condition were the old plugs in ?

Mines now on 97000 miles but it's LPG converted so the plug change will be a F'ing nightmare to do so I'm putting it off !!

It still runs so smooth so I'm tempted to leave it a little longer - the manual says they are due to be changed at 105000 miles. Stolen / Gone: 2006MY Supercharged LPG Autobiography - Zambezi Silver with Sand/Jet/Jet Oxford Leather.....

To be fair, plugs were ok. light brown, no obvious burning or wear on the electrodes. Iridium is HARD

Think I could have left them but thought by the time I had everything set up and a fridge full of beer it seemed churlish not to.

Encouraging to know they are in good shape

Saw the 105k mile schedule , and assumed it was going to be like the
"Sealed for life" gearboxes

Be interested to know if you observe any benefits ...
Better mpg?  Alcohol and eBay is never a good mix

2006 4.2 Supercharged, Java Black

Will keep an eye on it and report back. I'm hoping for some improvements. (wishful thinking perhaps )

i was wondering whether new plugs would improve starting and mpg... ... - .- -.
