The other trick is to tape the plug socket to the swivel socket along with the extension. I know, you must be asking how as it twist, tape will all come off. I use duct tape, not that weak blue tape. Ask mehow I has to fine out. I put a bit of anti-seize on the thread and silicone grease on the inside of the rubber boot. Bought them the plugs, and Bleu (spelling?) from FCP as a kit.

There is no need to do anything else, the heat shield is the biggest PITA because smaller hands are needed. I think the small nuts on the heat shield is a 8mm inside star nut. Since they aren't on too tight, a cheap set was all that's needed. I had a miss fire code flashing and the car can bearly make it up the hill . Bob help me out here a bit, like he always does.

Cool.

Yeah, the YT video done by FCP did all of the work from the bottom, but then another video that I checked out did all of the work from the wheel well, which looks easier.

I'll probably jack up the car and then try to do all of the work through the wheel well.

It's interesting, the FCP (and Jeff) said that the coil bolts are etorx.


But then this other guy that went through the wheel well had regular torx bolts on his


Either way, I'm pretty sure that I'm good to go.
