Monaco RS Clio 172
hey
tonight I was driving along and the car just went mad making a loud popping noise / clicking so I called the AA to recover it, fearing turning it back on, and they discovered it had blown a spark plug out.
they removed the plenum and the thread / plug was intact, so they tried to screw it back in but the thread inside where it goes into the cylinder head (I think lol) wouldn't tighten back up completely, just a bit, so they towed it home just to play it safe.
my question is, is there a relatively easy/cheap fix for this or is it an engine strip down / rethread jobby?
if so anyone had this happen / know how much / best place to get it done?
I know rentec/jms/ktec but they are quite far from me up in sevenoaks kent.
thanks,
lee.
