Many people don't know this about me. I've always been the type of person to get right in there and help out with whatever i'm involved in. I'm the type of person that wants to be working instead of standing there watching the work being done. I always was right in there helping my dad work on the cars, getting my hands greasy and dirty, not worrying about breaking a nail, like most girls at the track would be afraid of. It makes you appreciate it a lot more when you are the one doing the work. Racing has taught me this valuable lesson in life.
Pictures of the Romer Shoal Light from on board the Celebrity Summit at the beginning of our ten day cruise. The Romer Shoal Light is a sparkplug lighthouse that dates from 1898 and is in the Lower New York Bay. It is 2 and a half nautical miles north of Sandy Hook, New Jersey. I was using the 2x converter on the 100-400 lens and saw a few of the pictures also show the Sandy Hook Lighthouse in the background. I was surprised on a few to see the Navasink Twin Lights as well. Not sure there are many places where you can see three lighthouses at once! I was able to see a number of lighthouses in New York Harbor this trip. On board the Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas for a grand 14 day cruise to Greenland (September 14th through 28th, 2023). The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) with an actual stop in Manhattan (a delay leaving NYC caused by Hurricane Lee); Nuuk, Qaqortoq & Nanortalik in Greenland; St.John's, Newfoundland before heading back to New York City.

This is the oldest caisson foundation "sparkplug" design lighthouse in the U.S., built in 1871. The round cast iron tower is 47 feet tall and incorporates a 2 story keeper's quarters. A solar powered 250 mm lens provides 2 red flashes every 5 seconds.
Located in Duxbury Bay, not on Duxbury Pier as the name implies, on the north side of the entrance to Plymouth harbor.

The West Bank Light is a sparkplug lighthouse that dates from 1901 and is in the Lower New York Bay. It serves as the front range light with the Staten Island Lighthouse serving as the rear range. This guided ships into the Ambrose Channel. I was able to see a number of lighthouses in New York Harbor this trip. On board the Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas for the Seven Night Labadee & Puerto Plata Cruise (November 6th through 13th, 2022). The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) with stops at Labadee, Haiti and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic before heading back to New York City. The itinerary changed after Hurricane Nicole canceled our planned stops.

Part of text sent to VWDriver magazine:
You may remember that a few years ago I decided to change the plugs on my Golf4, the car prefers a change at 20,000miles or two years. Also my oil burning problems were causing the occasional misfire, so I wanted to switch to a more open ‘surface gap’ design of plug.
Anyway once I had done a little research for the ‘job’, I also decided to change the plug leads at the same time, the leads on my previous Golf a Mk2 having failed after 4 years (the clip in a cap failed leaving the cap vibrating on the plug), hundreds of miles from home in the Christmas break.
I needed a plug cap removal tool; vasillalov at VWVortex.com suggested using the tool which had previously been clipped to the bonnet props of the Mk3 Golf in certain markets – North America for instance. VW removed the bonnet prop from the Mk4 so there was nowhere to attach the tool; the tool was therefore deleted,Lol.
The tool has a part number of 021 012 213 and had a rrp of £12.66 plus Vat, in January 2006.
The plug leads had been upgraded since my originals were produced, the ‘body’ was longer & the leads were reinforced with an extra layer of silicon – this was going to cause a little difficulty with the tool. The part number was 06A 905 409 L & rrp £47.86 plus Vat.
I did not use a u/j on my socket due to severe space restrictions; I managed to buy an extension with what amounts to a ball end, giving approximately 20 degrees of articulation - just enough for the job.
The tool worked fine on extracting the plug caps & the plugs came out after unclipping various pieces of fuel injection kit. The caps and leads were more difficult to remove from the car but came out ok. If you car has an air pump – you must remove this to get to the coil ends but I was lucky in this respect. Comparing the new & old leads it was obvious that the new leads would not fit through the slot on the removal tool due to their extra thickness, so I decided at this stage to open up the slot with a drawfile – a Dremmel sander or similar may be preferable to do this task. Only open up the slot edge, opposite the notch on this side of the tool. Once I had checked the new leads did slide through the boot tool, a deep breath was taken before manhandling the new leads into place on the engine.
I believe the tool works ok on most Mk3’s, Mk2’s & early non turbo large block Mk4’s (plus other Vdubs), the mods mentioned being necessary on later models.
