I need to chang my spark plugs or check them. But I cant find a spark plug wrench to fit them . Even the Honda shop canc't help me.  Ive got a    99 Honda Valkyrie Interstate,It would seem that the the stander and tour wrenches won't work.

Should be in tool kit. I just use a 18mm deepwell socket on my IS. I put some electrical tape deep in the socket to help hold the plugs in the socket.

If it has champion plugs in it, the oem socket will not work.  Hoser

lindon301,

To reply to a thread, click the "Reply" link at the top or bottom of the thread.  The "Report to Moderator" link is exactly what it says, it reports the post to the VRCC Staff.  None of your replies have came to the board, but have been sent directly to the VRCC Staff which I assume is not what you meant to do.

I tried to email you but it came back as a bad email address...need to update that in your profile.  cooldude

I found out that the plugs where Champion, thats why the wrench would not fit. So I went to Sears And bough a 17,16 ,and a 15mm socket. The 17mm socket worked Thank all of you for your help.
