    Is there a way to replace the part that connects to the spark plug. I just slips off the spark plug it just isn't tight enough to grip onto plug.

    I know it isn't a motor question. Hope someone can help

    Go into a lawn mower repair shop, they'll have the part, or tighten it with a pliers

    Yeah you can buy them too, or you could always throw a bit of adhesive on it and it'll sort it

    Does the rubber bit come off the spark plug completely so that you see the metal bit in it?

    Had a look the part does come off. While looking I noticed It was coming off cause the plug wasn't long enough for metal part inside to grip into it.

    Doh.....
