10mm sparkplug Socket

Halfords are good, although mid range, if you can afford it then a basic tool kit from Snap-on

lol! a basic tool kit from Snap-On..................it'll cost more than the cars worth!

Kev you say 10mm sparkplug socket............where did you get 10mm from? Are these the smaller type plugs? if so then it is a 5/8" socket surely?
