I had my spark plugs changed a couple weeks ago before I left for college. Walked out the other day car was running really bad and engine light was on. I looked under the hood and saw arcing in the back from a sparkplug and noticed the wire had fallen off. All i need to do is put it back on I think but its the very back passenger side and I cant reach it...how do yal reach it when yal change plugs and wires???

Take the coil packs off or try to come up from the bottom.

Its a bitch to actually change the plug, but its not that tough to just push the wire back on.

man I have no tools up here and would have to drive all the way home to do that. Guess Il just have to try a little harder.

Normally it's easiest from under the car. It sounds like you're going to have to get your hand back there somehow and push it back on. It needs to double click before it's secure.

As Josh mentioned, if you can find a 1/4" drive socket set just take off the one coil pack, but the back coil pack bolt is no easier to get off than using your hand to push the plug wire back on. Good luck!

push the wire a bit through the boot to make sure the connector is going to click then put the wire on the plug then put it on the coil pack or try from under the car
