Re: [T3] A few questions from downunder


I should have noticed you are 'downunder'; it's pretty tricky on a twin
carb (you really notice the ease in FI).
In the 60's, VW supplied a great tool in the tool roll; it had a small
spark-plug socket on the end, with the rubber core to hold the plug, while
the rest of the shaft was about 3/8" tube with cross-drilled holes for a
'tommy bar' for turning it.  You are right under the carbs with the front
right one particularly.

A universal joint plug tool is handy for removing, but you can't replace
them very easily that way, even with the ones that have a spring round the
joint.
