Left them in, it was easy to turn the engine over with them in.

You actually found it easier to turn the engine by hand with the plugs in?

Tricky, I use a 24" racthet on the crank bolt & it will turn the engine over easy. I never take the plugs out just to turn the engine. Poorboy

Ah OK I just have small tools, but I guess I could use my air gun Smile
