Default Spark Plug Tools?

Hey guys,

Recently got m hands on an ED with an AU2 5.0l engine. Gone to swap over the spark plugs and I'm having a real bad time trying to get the passengers side done. Drivers side was no worries, but I'll be if I can get the ones on the other side out past the headers.

Any pro-tips on how to do it? Any special tools I should invest in?

Default Re: Spark Plug Tools?

if its front passenger side,

spark plug socket, then use an open end spanner to undo and tighten. should only need a nip up so majority of the thread can be tightened and undone using your fingers.
