  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Just did my spark plug change to HKS plugs for the JB4! It wasn't as bad as I thought, took a little over an hour. I recommend NOT using locking extensions or a spark plug socket. On the passenger side and sometimes on the driver side, you need to be able to assemble and disassemble the extensions in the spark plug chamber to be able to work around the manifold and such. With the locking extensions and spark plug socket, you will be fighting to remove and assemble them in the tight spaces. Just use a standard 5/8 socket and use a magnet to remove and it goes pretty smooth!

Driver side plugs are all fairly easy. The tough one is the middle passenger shown below
