Thanks, Andrew

stock 1800 apparently with 1700 heads, does that make any diifference in using the suggested NGK plugs.

1700 uses the same plugs as 1800.

do you know what plugs were in it before? heat range etc?

how'd you go lowering the fasty?

Have the originals still in it but not looked at them. Just thought id check on whats good. Fasty is now lowered front end, dead easy when your shown what to do/how to do.................thankyou VWCOOL :thumb

I also recommend NGK. I used Bosch and they were made in India and they failed very quickly.
