Changed my plugs and wires!!!
 
Hooray for me!!

So all of you know, it's a big deal for me to do this successfully. Seems like every time I touch something, I screw it up. I actually changed all 8 plugs and wires on an LS1!!! :chug:

I replaced them with TR55's and MSD wires. Driver side wasn't to bad. Passenger was kind of a PITA. I tried doing it without removing the coils because I didn't want to screw with that last bolt way in the back. Turns out I wasn't able to get the car jacked up and get #8 from below like I planned so out came the coil packs.

I think the hardest part sometimes was pulling the stock wires off the plugs. Man those things were stuck!

Car idles much smoother now! And that tick noise that I had is gone!!! I was also able to get the coolant temp sensor that I broke off flush with the block out and a new one put in. Yay for me!

Now she's off to the dealer tommorow to get her first PA inspection. Hopefully nothing is funny and I don't get raped.

Somebody chug a beer with me. I'm happier than a pig in shit!!!!!!!!!

That's why neither of my coil packs has bolts in the back holes any more :)

Gets easier every time you do it.
