With the limited experience I have on this car it really is not as bad as some of the others i have owned. The back 3 plugs however are not exactly a cake walk.
Yes..they are, c'mon Andy.. it's the 150K mile original plugs that suck.
Hey they only have 100k on them LOL. Was a selling point for me oh hey ALL original lol
i know what thats like :th_angry-yelling:Quote:

unbolt the dog bones then with a ratchet strap pull the engine forward this will give you a good 3 inches of extra room, enough to see the plugs now.
the middle rear iirc is the one blocked by the o2 sensor, i put the socket on the plug, then was able to just put the tip of a 3 inch extension in the socket, then broke it free. you'll see what i mean when you get to that plug.
or if you have real spark plug sockets that have a bolt head at the top, use a wrench on the plug socket to break it free.
Attachment 13204 just so you guys have an idea on what I'm dealing with.

Can't tell from the pic, what I'm even looking at.
Looks like a fuzzy iphone pic.
It's the plug on the transmission. I think I may have fixed it or I broke it for good. I'm scared to pull it back out.
OH.. you need this.

You'll need to pull the side cover and replace that wiring harness
How do I do that? I didn't see it anywhere in the link. Do I need to pull the pan or can I just pull the side cover?
Ouch yeah that connector has to be replaced. I think you will have to drop the pan and unclip all the solenoids and such. I really dont know on these transmissions though. I have never had one apart. From previous experience on other transmissions (4L60/4L80/5R55/4R70/4R100) you have to drop the pan.
