I just got done changing spark plugs, got to tell ya, the #5, was a hard one! does anyone know what the best tool to use to get that out more easier? all I had was a straight wrench and socket, I finally got it done there but it took a while to get it lose, cause I had make very small cranks with that tool. but know it starts up very fast. I was thinking of getting a long wrench 5/8, with a adjustable socket on the end. Well I am just glad I go done with that job. Have a good one!

 

Both of my back 2, I had to use every combination of flex-ratchet, wobbly adapter, and extension we had here.

 

yea the tool that looks like a little u-joint/knuckle comes in handy,
not used a whole lot by me but glad i own one...

 

My 3/8" stubby flex head ratchet and 6 inch extension help me get at the one plug closest to the firewall in the left head. That is the hardest one to reach on my 3.9. I point the handle of the ratchet down and backwards and I have enough room to pop the plug loose. Then it spins out easily with the ratchet. Anti-sieze helps make sure the plugs go in and come out easy too.

the hardest part is dodging the brake booster I think.

 

Any ratchet and universal adapter with extension will get it out just fine. I remember those good ole days of changing plugs

 

I removed the air box to get to the passenger side. Ya #5 was a pain to get to the 1st time, but when i put the new back in, i just dropped the plug in first, then dropped the socket in, then attached a 5in extension, then attached the ratchet (point upwards) and was easy as could be. On #3, same thing, just pointed the ratchet down.
