Hi just wondering if any one knows of a link or can tell me how to change the spark plugs on my 1996 6n Polo?
I know it's fairly easy just don't wanna f**k it up
Cheers people!

Get a spark plug socket and a ratchet, or a spark plug tool (measure up against new plugs as there are two different sizes)
remove HT leads from plugs
unscrew plugs one by one. If you cant get it out, gently push the HT lead required on and pull the spark up attached to the lead.
fit new plugs, ensuring you dont cross thread or over tighten them
refit leads
test start

Sweet, easy as that then! I'm doing it today so hopefully it goes well

may as well change the air filter at the same time as that needs doing.
Cheers dude
