[QUOTE="HaulinAshe, post: 532516, member: 1875"] The el-cheapo spark plug socket that Yamaha provides, works better than anything else I've tried. A 14mm socket fits over it for the final tightening. Theoretically, you should be able to use a sharp point like a long-taper awl or needle to poke a hole in the plug boot. Lube the football needle with some spit and blow that sucker right out. It should seal itself fine after the air needle is removed. The whole thing could just cause one great big fart noise, but it will be fun to try on somebody else's bike this weekend. :) [/QUOTE]
