Spark plugs and Cranking Easy way to change out the spark plugs on a 97 Trans am? Really tight space on the passenger side. Also, I replaced the whole fuel system along with a new battery, I finally get it cranked but I have to keep my foot on the gas, if I take my foot off it the car dies. Any ideas why that may be (Still learning the ropes so plain English please lol)?

Have you checked what your fuel pressure is?
spark plugs that can't be accessed from up top can be reached through wheel well or from under the car
Because I never drove my '96 Z/28 in the winter, the exhaust system nuts and bolts didn't "rust up", so the 2-3 times that I changed the plugs/wires, while I owned it, I found it easier to drop the "Y" pipe off the car, and work from underneath.
While taking the "Y" pipe off may have taken 20 minutes, I could then change the plugs in about a half hour.
