Spark plugs again.

[VladN02]

well i decided to put the bosch plugs in,
but i have no clue where to start on this 4.6
used to 3.6 v6s hehe
does anyone have like instructions or any kind of walk through to change your own plugs...

I can't help much here, but when my son and Boozer changed mine last year, it didn't seem like a very difficult job, except getting the plugs out. Of course, I was just watching. ;-)

BUT... Be careful and pull the boots out straight, or they might crack. We learned this the hard way.

Vlad, use a 12 inch extension with a 5/8 spark plug socket. Next electrical tape the socket to the extension.

Slightly lubricate (WD-40) the outer edge of the socket (sometimes the spark plug valve cover gasket is tight and has tendency to "squeeze" out) this makes the opening smaller thus making it harder to push/pull past it.

Its not fun fishing for sockets.

I don't know if it is proper to post this link. I tried to get to it through the Automobilia link on the Home Page on this site, but the page locked up and wouldn't finish loading.

Hope it helps
