tune up help
so I know this is a dumb question, but im having a hard time with it. I did a tune-up a month ago and when it came to the spark plugs, I could only get three out. Just seems like theres no room to even get a hand on them let alone a socket. Is there a secret trick or special tool? Please help me out!

The easiest way is to remove the tire on the side you're working on. Then Use a spark plug socket and extensions/wobble joint. (or whatever it's called) For the driver's side, turn the steering wheel to get a little more room next to the steering shaft. You should be able to get all of them out using the socket, extensions and wobble joint thing. Also a breaker bar may be needed.
Good luck,
Steve

You would have if you checked out the Tech Article (DIY) Index post and clicked on the #3 Sparkplug Removal thread. The index is linked to from the home page and has a LOT of useful information in it.
