I did like I said... I did it! The front of the car looks way better without the orange. (I have a SWP BL.)

Taking notes...

Why go a step colder on your plugs? A colder plug can reduce problems with in the engine. Reduced heat is good for summertime...
Here check this out... http://www.ngk.com/glossaryImage.asp?imgID=94 I also posted a pic to click on.

Sweet I think I will do this.

I would be very careful about those disc-style gap tools, or any sort of precise measuring device for a buck. Using a set of feeler gauges is a lot more reliable
True, true, True!

That sucks. Yea great write up. I read it before I changed my plugs. Thanks again Boxer.

I like this a lot.
Especially if you're catless.
All I can do is:

I have in white "SPT" on the QTR windows... they added 5 WHP! LOL

Good information. Well written, Thanks.

Wow. That video worries me - mine DEFINITELY does not come out like that, there was about a 1-2mm clearance binding - - - and I'm CERTAIN that I flipped it and maneuvered it exactly like that.
I had to move my motor towards the passenger side with brute force in order to get the coil pack out . . .
what could cause my situation?? Weak motor mount?
I just did mine last night. I did not have that problem. I wouldn't think motor mounts would cause that. When they good bad, (or break) its a "up and down" (or side to side depending on how you look at it) movement and only when the engine is running.

I changed out the orginal spark plugs last night. It took me 2 1/2 hours and a Dr.Pepper. Big change from my 10 mins change in my Integra. But hey now I dont have to do it again until another 25K. (I know they are noted to be changed at every 30K.)

So, my car was at the dealer today, I disconnected my access port but left the green connectors in the fuse box collected, but not under the pas side carpet. First thing they noticed. Asked me about aftermarket computer blah blah, I denied it. so they disconnected them and the CEL came back on, PO203 cyl 2 misfire. They found it had a bad coil, and that plug was loose, he said the washer wasn't even crushed. Also found my colder plugs but the tech said they were hotter? I just want to make sure I got the right ones now, LFR7AIX one step colder correct? So they wanted to put in the stock ones, $250 I said no I'll do it myself. Hopefully thats it now. Coil was covered by my extended warranty, but he said if I have problems in the future with the wrong plugs they may deny me, whatever.
Just keep some stock plugs around and swap them in before going to the dealer again...

Sweet I will have to check this out. I just printed off the PDF.

This is good stuff. I might have to do this to my 5EAT.
-
I did this to my Exhaust... sound + labor (10 mins.) + price (free) = love it. Thanks for the idea.
-
Ha I did it last night... a whole 15 mins and four washers (that I already had) and now it sounds like an "old school" Subaru from the 1980s... not bad, not bad at all.
-
So let me get this straight. The "Hogzaust" exhaust is just washer/s placed on the bolt/s to give exhaust a little opening to let the exhaust leak out?
-
And I was just wonder how its done... Thanks for the heads up. I am used to 10 mins of work for a spark plug change.
