[QUOTE="mike202, post: 630581, member: 17202"] I have Weber 34 ICT carbs with CB performance manifolds. These manifolds are taller than some cheaper makes so perhaps make it easier to access the front spark plugs. The main problem I had was that the plug socket that I used at first was too wide for the tin around the plug opening. I could tighten the plug up but had difficulty then withdrawing the socket as it is only attached to the extension bar with a push fit joint. (ball bearing and spring) I found an old T bar plug socket and this worked great as it is all one piece, and maybe slightly slimmer than the socket I had. Number 1 plug was the worst to access! One thing to be careful of is not to cross the threads when screwing the plug back into the cylinder heads. [/QUOTE]
