Default Reaching the back spark plugs

Anyone feel like telling me how to reach the back spark plugs on the 3000GT engine, without actually taking out the engine? Lol.

You have to remove the upper intake plenum. LOL "taking the engine out" [sm=bangbang.gif]

Not much....just unbolt the upper intake and EGR tube and you can leave everything else hooked up. All you do is just pull the intake out of the way, just enough to reach the plugs. A lot less work that way, but if you do remove it now you can clean everything up or you can send me your intake and i can polish it like mine

No thanks man. I can get it done somewhere else for under $200. But I do appreciate the offer. Thanks!

Well, unless you can teach me how to do it myself, pretty sure I wouldn't do a good job of it, lol. Though lord knows I'd love to polish my own parts; I just don't think I'd do a good job.
