Just changed the plugs for the first time since getting this car in March when it had 117k miles ( now 119k ).
This was the hardest plug change I've ever done as the amateur that I am.
Took the cover off, no problem. Disconnected the plug connectors, no problem. Took the coil assy bolts out, no problem. Pulled 3 of the coil assy's up but the 4th wouldnt come up, no matter what. I literally had to get the jack handle out of the back and use the chisel tip under the thick plastic part, to finally get it to come up! WHAT A PAIN.
A snap after that though.
Photo of the plus below. I guess the original owner ( or the factory? ) must have put in iridium plugs when the car was new?
They look ready to change though. ( not sure what the white stuff is, but that means it's burning lean? )
