You bought a car without at least removing and examining the plugs?
You have great faith!

Geez, how was he suppose to check them if he could even get them out?
We're talkin' brit car here. The whole concept of owning a brit car is
one of faith isn't it?.
When I bought my TD I had to stop at an auto parts store before I even
got it home to buy new plugs. The previous owner had left an extra set
in the spare plug holder in front of the tool compartment on the
firewall but they were in worse shape than the ones I removed from the
engine. I suppose this should have given me a bad feeling about the
whole car but it was my first British roadster. I didn't care a hoot.
