Back plugs on a V6 - Wobble Bar
« on: 23 February 2009, 15:18:08 »

Some people report problems changing them

Try the following

Plug Socket
Wobble bar
Windey handle

Works fine

Wobble bars are a brilliant invention for those slightly out of direct reach items.

Well worth getting a couple.

NOW you suggest a wobble bar!  ;D ;D

Just did my plugs this morning - to be fair, my problem wasn't access (Y26SE engine, so it's easy), but the grunt required to shift 'em - cyl 5 (drivers side rear) plug was locked in so tight I was rocking the car when heaving at the ratchet.

Never mind, all done now. Wobble bars will be on the future tool purchase list, though.  :y

I always change my plugs as a matter of course when I have replaced the cam cover seals - access so much easier with it stripped down.
