Now THAT'S what I'm trying to hear. Anyway, my first car was a 1976 Ford Elite.

Of course I didn't have anything to lose working on an old clunker with a 351 iron block. I've never even messed with a front-wheel drive car before, and after watching my boy Sean work on my Chrysler Cirrus (Mitsubishi engine actually), I don't want to screw anything up. That's alright, it's time to call my pops back into town and have him show me a couple more things.

Although I don't think he's going to be to thrilled about it either (he hates these new cars).




You can do it. There are several "How-to's" around. Try here. I did mine a few months ago, my first time EVER doing anything like this. DEFINITELY use some duct/ electrical tape and attach the plug ratchet to the long shaft, will save you some time and trouble. You are right, with the V6 engine, there isn't a ton of extra room, but I did not have to take anything extra off.

If I can do it, ANYONE can!

Good luck !
