Re: LT1 & Spark Plugs

Subject: Re: LT1 & Spark Plugs

Enough procrastinating. I think I'm going to sack up and attempt this tomorrow on my '92. I have a variety of extensions, wobble adapters, two types of spark plug sockets (one with a u-joint and the other is solid but with a hex fitting), extra long needle nose pliers, anti-seize, and some diaelectric grease. I'm hoping I'm set.

Anyway, in looking at the situation, I think on the passenger side, if I remove the center wheel house panel, it appears to be a straight shot with a long extension to everyone but #8, but using the "face away" technique, I've been able to get my big fat fingers on the plug wire, so I'm hoping that I should be able to get the old one out and a new one in.

The driver's side actually looks REALLY ugly to me, especially #7 (nearest the firewall). Again, removing the center wheel house panel and POSSIBLY the ASR bracket, I think #1, #3, and #5 SHOULD be doable. But man, I can just barely see #7 through the maze of AIR piping and plug wire brackets. Is there really no other way of getting to that guy without removing all that crap?

I don't have a jack/jackstands, so going in from underneath isn't an option.

Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks!
