Default Spark Plugs

Hi All,

where's the best place to get some spark plugs for an 03 s2000, also it needs to be local (sheffield/worksop) and open in the morning, i've gotta get some by 9am

the car wont start tonight, it almost firing but then just keeps turning on the starter.
the batterys fine and there's no immobiliser or alarm. it's running an hydra ecu and that's not yet mapped to suit the engine (that's where it's going tomorrow).
when i removed the plugs they were black and sooty, more than likely an air/fuel mixture problem (would seem right as it's not mapped right).
with the plugs being dirty i'd say there's either no or a weak spark.

the local honda dealer is not really easy to get too at that time of morning plus i'm going in the opposite direction.
do Halfrauds sell them?

thanks
Chris

Have you tried cleaning the plugs ??

I use intake cleaner on them, usually comes up a treat, if you are using an ECU that is not mapped yet then I would put the standard ECU back in to drive. I have driven the Integra with a standard base map on it, not nice.
