How do you access the lower end of the spark plug wires on a 2003 s-10? they're waaay down there.?

I'm trying to change the plugs and wires on my truck, but I can't figure out how to reach them! I'm no mechanic, so any pointers are appreciated.How do you access the lower end of the spark plug wires on a 2003 s-10? they%26039;re waaay down there.?
They make a wire boot tool, keeps you from ripping up the wires, but if you're replacing them, just tug them up.



You'll need an extension and the proper socket... I suggest taping the socket and extension together so the socket don't pop off down in the hole... and use a SPARK PLUG socket which has the rubber insulator which holds the plug... everything should come out just fine. Good Luck!How do you access the lower end of the spark plug wires on a 2003 s-10? they%26039;re waaay down there.?
Pull on it! Grab it and pull!!!

Your going to need an extension on the socket to get the plugs.



A wire boot tool? Thats a rip off!!!

you'll need a swivel spark plug socket,and a 16mm wrench to access the 3 spark plug by the steering shaft, you may be able to jack up the truck and access some plug from the tire well,its best you allow vehicle to cool down so you don't burn your self on the hot exhaust,when u remove spark plug boot use a twisting motion to unstick them from the spark plug,so they don't break if you're planning to reuse wiresHow do you access the lower end of the spark plug wires on a 2003 s-10? they%26039;re waaay down there.?
