You need to either grind doen a tube socket or get a special mitsubishi spark plug tool thin enough to fit in. A regular soxket set wont fit

Standard spark plug removal socket mate. It'll have the rubber insert for grabbing the plug. And just check your jack kit in your boot. Mine had the special tool hidden in there. So much easier than wrecking a socket if you have it

Its the 16mm spark plug socket size. They do make other size plugs

I've never had a different sized plug, all the ones i've ever changed have always been the same one

Is the spark plug socket part of the FTO toolkit in the trunk?

Na I don't believe they ever came out with the vehicle, but some lucky owners like myself may have acquired them with the vehicle from previous owners. Mine was in with my jack kit

Pretty sure they did come with the tool kit.
