thanks :) good stuff on here just cant find much info on whats going on with mine atm :(

Are you saying the plug needs a helix sleeve to fit in the head?

If yes then replace the helix or the head !

there has been a helix sleeve fitted at some point (previous owner) as i took the spark plug out the helix sleeve unscrewed at the same time so isit as simple as buying the same type helix sleeve and refitting or do i have to call a specialist out?

thanks for reply :)

Try Googling "Thread Adaptor"... Some results will just be for reducing/expanding but some are for the actual thread ;)
