Spark Plug Change - anybody seen this before?
Changing my spark plugs this weekend and I cam across something I did not expect and was hoping somebody could shed some light on this for me (and others if they run across it as well).
From all the data I gathered (these forums, Pedro's garage, Bentley shop manual, etc..), I should have 6 plugs, 6 crank case sleeves, and 12 o-rings total for spark plug parts. I purchased all of the parts and began removal process today... too my surprise, there are no crank case sleeves in my spark plug wells. I put the crank case sleeves I purchased up to the hole and they wouldn't even come close to fitting. Apparently it looks as if I have a different engine rev or something and wanted to see if this was common or not. Can anybody comment on this?
My Boxster is a 2003 2.7l and the engine was replaced by Porsche in 2005. The ticket for the replacement engine says 2004 2.7 engine but I assume they are all the same.
Here are some pics of my spark plug well:
