    It is a pain, even as an installer it still takes me a bit to get it out and cram my hand back there. Let the car sit for a while if uve drove it, bcuz that metal u rub on is HOT and hurts

    Just popped it out by hand. Might have used a flathead screwdriver. Seems to me like you're making this a bit more complicated than it needs to be. you spend 2 minutes passing the wire from inside the car to the engine bay and 10 minutes trying to snake your hand down past the engine to grab it.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
