Default Splutter gone woo woo

I went to faithfull halfords at the weekend, and thanks to paul being my help line I got myself some leads and bits to clean my spark plugs up as they didnt have any spark plugs put new leads and put car back together and still spluttered , then attempted to take my spark plugs out and my ratchet was a 12 and i needed a 10 but my hands were freezing anyway so packed it in. Got the right size ratchet today and was dying to have a look at my sparkys........oooo filthy they were, so with the tips from my dad cleaned them up in petrol and wire bushed them and then reset the gaps.....dum dum dummmmm she started........, put key in ignition started her up and prayed.......and shes fine

now i have a constant smile on my face...........

cheers big wig too
