Re: Tool necessities for spark plug change
get your knees up on the battery...use an open ended wrench, (not an ajustable one) Use the "closed" part of the wrench, slide it carefully down the spark plug...make sure you keep it as straight as possible on that nut part on the plug...then tighten...can't let it slip off, you have to hold it right otherwise you'll break it...gotta have patience...Originally posted by HyperHawk View Post

Re: Tool necessities for spark plug change
plug is in the hole.... car is running great just went down the highway to see if it was misfiring, nothing. So i got on the parkway for a bit and floored it from a stop. 0-80mph no misfire! Finally i've been misfiring for weeks to no avail!Comment
