Hey guys , I have a problem [:@] I dont see any way to remove the middle spark plug on the drivers side ????? The steering wheel shaft is in the way, Anyone know how to remove this plug ??? PLZ HELP !!

 

Nobody has ever replaced there sparkplugs ????? By the way its a 2002 blazer

 

sorry, I have a chevy v-8 in mine... I use a boxwrench, and a tool I got from Autozone... it is a spark plug socket with a swivel and a t-handle attached to it

 

This is how tight mine is

hi,remove the wheel on the left side and change the plug (i have changed my plug with no problem with this method)

 

I had the wheel off , Thats how i did the others, The steering shaft goes right across the center plug on mine. i dont see how you could do it without removing the shaft ??? Thanks for any help.

 

remove motor mount on that side, loosen cross member bolts and jack engine up an inch or 2 than u can get at it

 

if thats the only way to get it i would sell the truck...lol theres got to be a better way i havent tried to change mine yet so i dont know

 

The spark plug socket has a hex end on it... put the socket on the plug, and use a box wrench to turn it off... it's not that difficult.

 

There is so little room i could bearly get the socket on, just about forced it . and i couldnt get a box end wrench onto the socket, theres just no room with that heat shield on the manifold. But even if i could ,when i start to losen the plug it would be stuck against the steering shaft with 2 or 3 turns ??? Thats how close it is..
