No. Theres no point to putting new/better wires if theyre going to shitty plugs.

Sorry, thought you meant the other way around. Its a good idea to change your wires but not necessary if the wires are still good

Nickstock98t/a

how can i tell if its still good?

Stocktonz28

there probaly not. the wires arnt to much though an extra 20$ or so.

Mine looked ok then i pulled the 1st one off and it broke lol.

Nickstock98t/a

arent wires like $80?

Stocktonz28

Nope cheap stock replacements are like $20~$30 pending where you pick them up at.

Trust me i change my sparks every 5000 miles to keep my car running fresh and smooth.

how long does it take u to do? would this -> http://www.installuniversity.com/ins...sity/index.htm (click -install documents- then click -plug/wire change-) set me off right?

As long as you got the flexable spring spark plug tool not to long.
nowadays about an hour or so if you dont do it on a hot block.

Rember the first 3 turns do by hand to inshure there threaded right.

its quite simple ill even give you a walk trough. in another post.

You do have to disconnect your A though to get to the back passanger sparks. But all you have to do about that is put more freon in it which cost like $20s.

i'll do this like later. like the afternoon. thanks though. hope you'll be around then if i encounter a problem. thanks

Ok you go around your motor and pull off all the wires 1st.

Then you get your spark changer and do the driver side 1st.

Stick it down there and use a mirror to see the spark plug so you dont have to fish for it. Latch it on turn it pull it out along with the metal peice.

put the metal peice back on the new spark plug put it back in the slot after you put the silvery stuff on it and turn it by hand 3 times then if it feels right use the tool to fully tighten pretty tight. repeat for the rest of the driver side sparks.

Passanger side do the front 2 then unbolt your AC from the middle and move it out of the way so you can reach the back 2 sparks. watch out for the freon it stings.

the back 2 on the passanger side i greatly recomend a mirror and LED light. do the same as the driver side and rember there a pain in the *** to reach.

Re attatch your AC after your done and put a 24oz can of freon into it by unscrewing the black peice attached to the can thingy. Hold the can and shake it upside down. (gets more freon and less air in there)

shouldent take very long at all. Ive done it drunk so your good.

yes, definatly overkill. lol. you either drive the absolute **** out of your car to need to clean the intake manifold every oil change, and brakes. Or time and money are things you have entirly too much of. either way, youre car will hit the million mile mark i am sure.

oh my god. i thought i was ****... what does our owners manual say for radiator flush? how often?

Stocktonz28

I drive it easy unless im in prusiute of a kill. The way i see it is i dont want to get stuck driving my 93 silverado around its to slow for me lol.

I dont got alot of money no. but to do basc maitnence like this dont cost to much 40 for oil changes,about 80 for sparks, 40 for coolent, AC is changed after i do my sparks oviously,breaks are about 200 all the way around until next month im getting drilled rotors.($400pads and rotors all around)
Fluids stay close to toped off. O and did i mention that i also take q-tips to clean dirt off my motor?

o radatior flush every 50,000 miles. i do it more often becouse it gets all brown and nasty looking lol.

I dont change the trans fluid its better not to for 40,000 miles.
