Spark plug tool

Hi guys,

Just when I though my day couldn't get any worse.... On my way home I gave it a little boot and threw a misfire code on cyclinder 5. I'm going to replace the ignition coil and while I'm there do the spark plugs. Hoping it's not an injector issue :s

I have found this spark plug tool on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/KINCROME-...item5d46f3fe2a

It doesn't mention being thin walled like some of the other tools I have found overseas specifically to suit bmw n54 plugs. Does anyone know if this would work? It does mention being deep.

Thanks.

Thanks for the overwhelming response guys! Nice to see so many of you offer. I have pm'd totti as he's only around the corner from my workplace if he's in castle hill.

Thanks again

My misfire on cylinder 5 ended up being the plugs - suggest replace plugs first if it's just about overdue then coils since it's cheap!
