Kipor spark plug cross thread

[dsprik]

Looks like they had a 14 mm one on another link lower on that page (the one shown in the link is a 12 mm). I think we used the 12 mm on the Kipor.

The one catch, and it's not a big one, is that you have to have some clearance inside the cylinder so you can get the tool down past all the threads. You may have to turn the piston a little if it happens to end up like mine did - right up against the bottom of the spark plug.

On edit~ Oops for me too. The one shown is a 14 mm tool. I am not sure what size the mechanic used on the Kipor now. I now they do make a 12 mm size tool also. Are all spark threads pretty much standard diameter? I know there are different lengths...

David we are glad it worked out for you. Thanks for posting back helpful information.

Never measured threads. All I know is the socket size to remove them - 5/8 or 13/16.
