I have just attempted renewing the spark plugs on a 1.6 AKL engine. Plugs 1 and 4 were replaced no problem. Plugs 2 and 3 (i.e. the two inboard plugs) are totally inaccessible.
I consulted the Haynes manual and it states that that the lower half of the variable inlet manifold must be removed for access on the AVU engine but it does not mention the AKL engine.
Has anyone out there got experience of this? Is there any way of replacing them without the hassle of inlet manifold/fuel rail removal etc.?
