Greetings fellow Stag  owners,

Some obvious questions:

1/  How tightly should spark plugs be installed ? (e.g. hand tight plus
half 
a turn or torque figures)

2/ Where are the most sensible places to jack the car up from and place
axle 
stands ?  (particularly if the underside is not exactly corrosion free)

3/ Has anyone had their boot floor replaced ?  Is it a big/expensive job
?

4/ My Stag will be 25 years old in July.  What is the procedure for
going 
tax-exempt ?

5/ Has anyone used the 'Spitfire Graveyard'  in Sheffield for Stag bits
? 
 Are they any good ?



Thanks
