[Ducati] Advice needed on spark plugs

[brian pierson]

I can not remember what size it is off the top of my head. But, it is either a 18 or 5/8 spark plug socket that I used, with a very long extension, and a 3/8 drive ratchet to R&R the spark plugs in my 99 996. Good Luck!

Subject: [Ducati] Advice needed on spark plugs

Why can't I change the spark plugs on my 916?  

Seems a simple enough procedure that I have done 100s of times on my other bikes, but for some reason neither a standard spark plug wrench from my socket set nor the one that actually came with the Duc's tool kit seem work.  It feels as if there is something deep in the chamber that is blocking the wrench from seating down onto the plug.

Any hints or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.
