Lenah Valley is a nice place, gets cold though! I put stock standard NGK copper electrode plugs in the car, and it's been great ever since!

Had a Google of the spark plugs I pulled out of the car (the wrong ones the previous owner had bodged in there) from memory he had put commodore V6 plugs in it, and the heat range was completely wrong by about 6 points for gods sake... Combined with the faulty coil pack that only fired 4 cylinders, it was no wonder the poor thing wouldn't idle and kept stalling.. Someone should have not been allowed under the bonnet!!
