Service and Sparkplugs

Sledge · 18th April 2014, 03:45

Hi All,

I've got a scheduled service coming up and I was contemplating getting a service kit from Rimmers for my KV6.

The spark plugs say genuine Rover/MG. Does anyone recommend using this kit or are there other good alternatives? What plug are these, ie platinum or other?

while I'm at it I may change the pollen filter, anyone have a suggestion there as well?

Thanks in advance.

Genuine parts, platinum plugs good for 60,000 miles. Buy your genuine oil filter as well.

Much appreciated, added to wish list for future reference.

I bought for my one NGK Iridium BKR6EIX-11 which should be with preset gap, and I did job twice

my sugestion is: before you install any sparkplugs check each of them on your own if you don't like random misfire

.
If you are buying cabin filter is worth to invest few £ more and buy filter with charcoal which will stop also some smell and fumes not just dust as basic one.
