nah the plug on left was back plug, all in sequence to front plug from there.
Number 3 is normally the hottest isnt it?
plugs that were in it were Bosch Plantinum plus P4-6 FR8DPx
got some new plugs now they are NGK BCPR7ES.

Was just wondering as I've just sorted one for my car too, and normally the sensor would use the engine block as it's earth?
