      If you think our car isn't very accessable, you should try doing it on a 1999 V6 Chyrsler Sebring Lx. My friend has one and we had to take the entire intake manifold off just to get to the spark plugs. What a bad engine set up by mitsubishi. It took us about 3 hours to do.

        like silverbird said, give that thread a shot.

        and in the future, read the rules, search before you post, and turn the caps lock OFF.

            assuming you have a 98... from what I understand the driver's side shouldn't be so hard...but unless you're triple jointed you won't get to # 4 and 6 cylinders. You'll have to go up underneath the car. give yourself a few hours.

            glad you found the capslock [img]smile.gif[/img]

                  i dont know what you guys are talking about. I have NO problems what-so-ever doing sparkplugs and wires on all three of the camaros in my family. A 98 with log manifolds, a 2000 and my 96 with pacesetters..

                  All take no more than 25 min along with a cigarette and a beer break.

                  Wedge u'r damn hand in there, pull off the plug wires, get some scrapes and bruises and just go at it. i actually like doing plugs and wires better than oil changes.

                    Im glad your so good at doing it, maybe you should start a business changing spark plugs in camaros since your the only person that thinks its simple to do.

                          on a 97 u'll be better getting the drivers side from the top with a basic spark plug socket and maybe an inch or two extension. passanger side, go from the bottom. 5/8th deep swivel sockets are very helpful also.
