Post And I'm off.....

To change my spark plugs and coil packs. Also doing a fuel filter and oil change. This should be fun I will get to see how long my leg holds up for. Who knows maybe my truck will actually be fast after I do it too>??? Wish me luck. -Mat-

Just take your time and all will be fine.
Come on over sometime and let me show you the holes in my garage wall that a 3/8" drive ratchet fit into so well......
I kid you not, I had more cuts on my hands the first time I changed my plugs than you could get in a fist fight.
Second time was much easier.
Good luck

Marc

Cool

Ahhh, I didn't start the plug change until about 12:45 and with a few breaks to rest my leg and taking my time I was done at about 2:30. Not bad if you ask me for how slowly I was working. HaHa. Guess we will see what happens on Saturday. My leg hurts. -Mat-

Nothing really to be terrified of. If you want help just ask me. I wouldn't mind giving you a hand. Or if you just want pointers I can give you those too. I was terrified the first time I did but then afterwards I realized it wasn't all that bad. It is just time consuming. If me and my brother work together(we each do one side) we can do a plug change in about 30 minutes. -Mat-

im doing the pulley in a couple weeks, I would love help. I did the roush suspension, headers, e fan, valve body, all by myself but the plugs make me nervous, I'd be happy to pay you for your trouble in beer or money....
