get under the car and do it from there. you will have to put socket in first then the extension, then the rachet. that is the only way i did it. I just got done. On the left side (standing at the front facing the back) remove all of the air intake stuff, 4 bolts. On the right side, remove the washer fluid tank, 2 bolts and 2 connectors. Took me about 25 minutes including new plug wires.

How do you change the spark plugs on a 2002 Volvo S40?

to change the plugs you must take off the spark plug boots..you then take the spark plugs out with a 5/8 sparkplug socket..put the new plugs in the holes and finger tighten them a little(with the socket and extension so that it doesnt cross thread)it might also be wise to replace the wires if they look bad or cracked..


How do you change spark plugs on a 1988 Honda CRX?

Pull the wires out of the top of the motor, they have a long plastic boot on the end of the wire. Using a spark plug socket and a long extension you will be able to remove the spark plugs. Check the gap on your new plugs and I like to use a section of hose that fits on the top of the spark plug to to thread the plug back in. That way you reduce the chance of cross threading. Once you get them started you can tighten them down. I usually replace the wires when I replace the plugs. I would suggest replacing the plugs/wires one at a time to reduce the risk of mixing the wires up.

What causes a 2001 Neon to jerk when you speed up?

Faulty/fouled spark plugs or spark plug wires. I had this problem and a set of new wires fix it.


1996 Buick regal custom 3.1L spark plug change three back plugs?

remove the alternator. piece of cake then. remove the alternator first. You can remove the coil pack and bracket which is fastened by 2bolts/2nuts. This is the thing that the spark plugs wires plug into when the other side goes on the actual spark plugs. Once this is removed it is a breeze, a mechanic mirror helps and a knuckle or U-joint is almost mandatory. It seems like alot of wiring but everything only plugs where it belongs as far as the electrical connectors you remove goes, getting the nuts that are below was done as i stood on the passenger side, a friend will make it much more easy. Let me know if you need more details. xxsodasipperxx@yahoo.com
