  1. I just replaced the plugs in my 06 Outback XT last night. No fun if you have fat fingers like me. Is there a difference between the models that would make more space in some models and less in the Outback or is it just me? I missed the video on how to get the coil pack of the rear driver side plug, but I freed up some of the wiring so that I could rotate the pack 180 degrees and there was still no way to get that thing out of there. I got fed up and pulled the rubber boot and spring off the pack, left the pack hanging with it still pointing into the head. Woked OK but not very elegant. My other issue was getting the spark plug socket back out after installing the new plugs. I ended up doing a two part procedure. Start new plug with rubber sock in socket into head, pull of socket, remove rubber sock, finish tigtening plug. Car ran noticably better with new plugs at 64k miles. One weird thing happened though. I did the change last night. Went for a test drive and all was well. It started fine this am and went for my 50 min drive to town. Dropped of my kid at school, and the battery was dead??? Got a jump start and went to a shop, had the battery tested; it had a dead cell in it??? Coincidence or ???
