Help - Spark Plug Socket

Hi everyone,

I am trying to get my spark plugs out.
I bought a 16mm tube spanner but it still got stuck and not reaching the spark plugs.

Does anyone in Melbourne have a spark plug tool I'd be able to borrow?

Help would be really appreciated

I've found that if the plugs are too tight the stock spark plug tool will flare out. So just grind down a regular spark plug socket.

Thanks for the offer Emmett, I was hoping to have the plugs out before the weekend though. I'd also need it for a fair while (about a month as I would need to replace them a month from now or so).
If all else fails I might take you up on the offer however.


I also have a 16mm spark plug socket if anyone in Melbourne has a grinder and is willing to give me a hand in shaving the sides?
Or can recommend a mechanic that can do this for me on a Saturday?
