spark plug tubes ?

What tool do you use to remove the spark plug tubes??

I did the cam chain tensioner extenders and need to check the tubes.
I think I may have oil coming out of one.

the hex size is 27mm or 1 & 1/16
If you need new plug sleeves I have a set new in package retail for $26.80 on line I will sell for $50.00 shipped. You will need new O-rings, also if you take one out to look at you will also need O-rings to put it back together.

I did not take them out, I used a flashlight and looked in the hole and did not see any oil so I think I am OK.
Going for a ride in a little while will know for sure when I get home.

If I need them I'll contact you.
Thanks,
Bob

Bob just make sure the tubes are clean, then ride and check. Just past the bottom of the tubes are holes, that are supposed to be there, and are rain/ wash drains. make sure they are clean too. Mud wasps tend to clog mine with nests.
