Re: 24V Probe Idle Issue
I may have found the problem. But good news and bad news.
I keep hearing a 'ticking' from the front spark plug area, so I thought maybe a loose plug. Front right ok, but front middle and left and 2 at the rear I can't even get the spark plug socket on the plug, won't connect to the plug. Torch and glasses later reveal that 4 of the HT lead ends have broken down leaving rubber over the spark plugs that I can't get out, so fresh plug leads don't fit on properly and I can't unscrew the plugs.
Order some extra long long nose pliers ?

Re: 24V Probe Idle Issue
I had a similar problem, but it turned out to be the piece of rubber insert from a spark plug socket had been left on the spark plug and had gone hard, and had been push down the get the ht lead on, we could get a socket over the spark plug, until we removed the rubber insert from my socket then gently tap the socket down over the plug and we managed to removed the plug.Incognito wrote: ↑Wed Jul 13, 2022 4:42 pmI may have found the problem.
