The driverside plugs are easy.
The #2 cylinder is hard.

You might try cutting down a spark plug socket and using a wrench on the hex portion of it to gain clearance.
I'd think the worse thing about #2 is simply pulling the alternator to give yourself some room?
I can change all my plugs from the top with nothing more than a 3/8" ratchet, 3" extension, and normal 5/8" plug socket on my camaro. Plug access with TPIS longtubes is the best I've ever seen. The Hooker longtubes look to be routed somewhat similar.

I did my drivers side with hooker long tubes no problem. These pacesetters though it isn't happening with this plug. I might need to make a tool I did all the other 7 from the top cursing more than I have all month but I still did it. Part of me feels defeated by that one plug.


Is there a time frame for when I can pull one plug and take a look to make sure my rich issue is solved ? Hoping the Bosch 02s made for rich conditions when the other owner had it running.
