Err... I hate to point out the obvious, but how about using a spark plug socket? They are all deep, and they have a rubber grommet in the bottom to grab the spark plug with.

Also, do you realize that you have to remove the throttle body in order to remove the center 2 spark plugs? Just wondering...

theres 2 different sizes. 16mm (5/8) and 21mm.our cars are a 16mm. you need the right tool. pulling plugs out without the crrest tool sucks.....


p.s. laziness gets you know where. others will not help if they see you are npt interested in putting in an effort.


p.s. dont over torgue them youll stip the head.

But you are fucking lazy....

And asking if you need a deep socket? You have seen what a sparkplug looks like right?

Keep it real, dawg.

Or better yet, use you're head.

When you walk into buy your spark plugs from the parts store, pull one out and find the proper socket to fit it.

Seriously if you don't know this little bit of info, you need to put down the tools and pic up a TSRM before you touch the car again before you break shit...

You dawg you just defined laziness in you pathetic excuse to try and show us your not lazy dawg. You and your homies in the hood should go to get the tsrm or a haynes manual and jump into your hoop d and bonce on over to your crib and educate yourself.



You=fail.

I will never help you again. And I know it sucks but I hope no one helps you again because the impression you give off over the internet is your a douche.

I come from a land down under
In further guys, I got this question late last night in a PM and took the time to answer it in detail....

Why would I do that you ask if he's being a "lazy fuck"....

I didn't see it that way I see it as he's an "ignorant fuck" and just didn't know the answer so I HELPED him.

Frankly I'm a little disgusted by the bullshit on page one from a few of the relative newbies, if you're NOT going to help people STFU, this thread would have been 2>3 posts if you had not 2 pages then locked.
