What number BKR7E'S do we need for our 1.8t's? There seems to be a few variations.
Just plain BKR7E i.e not the BKR7EK
What number BKR7E'S do we need for our 1.8t's? There seems to be a few variations.
The "code" is the supplier s number, the plugs are just as listed.
I use the Eks too as they are twin electrode so don't need gapping.
Copper all the way for me as they handle the heat better but last less time. I just change every other oil change
I have also decided that the time has come to change my oil pickup pipe inside the sump... Top end is beginning to get a bit rattly, and I suspect that this is the likely cause.
Have you done the oil pump, tired oil pumps can also cause noisey tappets. Might aswell change it whilst the sumps off " would be rude not to"
OK, change of plan.
Bit concerned about this whole thing so I am going to take it off the road tonight and use the woman's car to get to work for the rest of the week, and anywhere else I need to go.
Going to start taking it apart tonight I think, as want to see what's what when I lift the lid off.
My FPR pipe had a colossal split in it when I looked yesterday, and so I want to make sure all is OK piston and valve wise.
And so it begins again.
A bit more in depth this time though as I will be having a good look up into the block whilst the sump is off...
Will take photos tonight.
Hope the pistons/valves are ok Welly, just when you think everything is going well something else happens!
Bit off topic but is it easy/possible to put a knock sensor on the 1.8t's
