Default spark plugs...easy

I swapped in some new plugs (Champion Platinum), it was about as easy as any car, simply undo the 2- 10mm bolts per coil and lift it out of the way, remove old plugs, a little anti-seize on the new ones and install. Kinda weird the secondary plug with the plug wire you couldfeel the wire snap onto the plug, but no snap with the coil onto the plug.I wish everything was this easy.

HEMI it was: once they mention secondary plug that means you buy 16 to change them out..

Easy but back breaking, always bending over for all 16 plugs and coils.

My wife and I just purchased a used 2005 Magnum R/T (I have an 07 Charger RT so my wife wanted a Magnum) There is just over 33K on it and I want to follow the manual for maintanence.

Other than the fact that there are 16 plugs....this is no worse than any other car to change the pluds??

Well today I replaced all plugs with Champion Platinum and like you said....it was easy. Thanks for the heads up on the 10mm socket, saved me some trial and error. Very simple job.
