The plugs are easy to change on the VG

Just get a sparkplug socket with the rubber in it to grab the plug and all should go well.

If you want to see different spark plugs discolorations and syptoms of those colors that are on the plug ,then buy or look in the back cover of your
chiltons manuel

You could put dilectric grease on your plug connector end to help spaark (lower resistance)

Hope that helps!!

Done And Done

alrighty then, changed the plugs, were a b*** to unscrew, best friend broke two sparkplugs while taking them out( the ceramic), used too much muscle not enough braine hehehehe. I found out the old plugs were running too hot for the engine, teh electrodes were white. anyways the max seems to be running ok. got scared when i was putting the new ones in, didnt want to cros thread my sockets, but it all went ok. Next stop rotor and distributor cables (when i have some more free time)
