Stupid question, how many plugs are in a V8?
How quickly can Olly change 16 plugs ?

I did a set today on a CLK430. (not painted pink)
Not a bad time but I can do better.

Howard if you get enough people betting maybe the winner will donate it to the CLK 430 spark plug fund

Well done!
SimonsMerc's guess of 22 minutes wasn't too bad then!

That was truly impressive...
..I did a V6 280 a couple of weeks ago and it took 3 hours and I gave up on one of the back ones !!!!Wish I'd had that air wrench

The air ratchet can be your worst enemy as it has to be used in a certain way. If you don't know how to use it it can be a hindrence.
It looks simple.
I have done a V6 in 25 before so I think I can do them in 18mins ish.

Woo, I was closest, where's my prize!
Although I'd have to ask that the prize be given to charity instead, since I was unable to make it on the day :-|
Hope you all had a wonderful time ;-)

It was interesting to watch a master at work - at times the air seemed to be on for a long time - I assume the speed of rotation is actually quite slow.
Hm - if I keep up the current mileage mine will need changing about this time next year
