Anyone has a write up with pics on how to change the spark plugs for the '00-01. I browsed the how to sections in the forum and only instrucitons available for 3.5 L engines. Haynes manual only shows how to change the plugs up front and no instructions for the rear plugs.

 

The only difference with the plugs on the rear bank is the shape of the coil unit. They are in a very awkward position being up against the firewall. Be careful you do not drop the screw that holds the coil in place.

 

check the how-2 buuub. there is a write-up there

Make ur wife, girlfriend, or mom make u some nice cold lemonade to cool you off when you get frustrated with the rears.

AoUCH!!!!!!




That was my first and the last-one Never ever again!!!!!! I really want to kick my car, but I did it, so Good luck kid!!!!!!


And the sad thing was when I finshed my friend e-mail me this http://www.nissanx.net/tanman/

 

had hard time with the ones in the back?

I found it easier to stand on a stool while replacing the ones in the back. If your car is lowered, it will be a lot more easier. (another excuse to lower your car )

 

Look one post up from yours!!!!!!!!!!

 

i could have taken better pics. since the write-up, i have changed the plugs 3 times. i can do them in 20 minutes now. yes the rears are a little bit harder. a cool engine and a wall helps. if you have the wall support, you can use that to push your feet and lay on the bay...
