Default guys with headers that have air and egr...

You guys have any tips on how to change spark plug #4(second one on passenger side)?? I got all others, but can't seem to get to it. The EGR and AIR provisions seem to be blocking any attempt I make at getting to the damn plug. Any advice???

I didnt have any problems with the passengers side. I see that you have the pacesetters as well...you should be able to reach it.

I take the 10 minutes to remove that stuff before I attempt the spark plugs on either side...it just saves the frustration.

I reached it from under the car. I dropped the starter, though. But I tightened it from above with a wrench on the end of the plug socket.

Take the AIR and EGR junk out, get some block-off plates, and get somebody with a tuner to delete the codes. Really cleans things up under there, and you'll never have to worry about that stuff being in the way again.
