Question
i have a 1989 kawasaki zx10 ninja.I cant seem to get a socket to fit my spark plug and cant run in and out of store to find one till it fits.woud you no what socket size I should get so i can get my spark plugs out?

Answer
I don't know what size of socket the spark plugs need. What you could try is to get the number off them and find one inside the store. Take it over to the tools section and use it to find the right socket. You might have to pay for the socket and the spark plug, but at least you'll have the proper socket.

It is possible, however, that you will need a special socket designed for your bike - this is not uncommon with motorcycle spark plugs. In that case, you might want to ask your local Kawasaki dealer for advice/help in getting the proper tool.
