you know what guys, passenger side plugs and driver front plug are actually not that bad at all (once you take out all the crap to let your arms get down there)


using a 14mm 3/8 deep socket, 3 inch extension, and a 3/8 ratchet i was able to do all 3 of them in under about an hour and a half... a vaccum hose also helps to screw the plug in by hand and then finish off with the tools above


But the drive back one (closest to the steering wheel) is the mother of all spark plug nightmares. I cant use the same 3/8 configuration of socket/extension.... my ratchet wont fit and its a slim profile.



my hands and forearms are CUT UP like crazy (even wearing gloves) trying to access that area and fiddle around with it. I actually had to give up yesterday and save this last plug for another day....


Theres a 1/4 socket + extension stuck in my coil tunnel currently Will report back once (IF) i manage to get this last plug changed and hopefully fire her up without a CEL
