Yup, use a 2 inch extension with a flex or elbow adaptor and a 6 inch extension on the other side attached to the ratchet and I had no problem. But, he (Carr) was also doing the plug seals when he did the plugs and wires, I'd like to see anyone do the seals without removing the intake. *wink*

Ya I know I can but it takes me 5 minutes to take the intake off and 5 minutes to put new plugs in the back. It is a lot faster (for me) to take the intake bolts out and move the intake a little instead fighting with the plugs. I had to take the intake off the first time to get the valve covers off so I could fix the plug seals. As far as the car running rich I will figure that out later now. I need to get the exhaust work done then the shocks then I will worry about it running rich. Plus I know there is something wrong, I got 20 mpg on the way from Nebraska to Albuquerque, so there has to be something wrong.

Low mpg doesnt mean its running rich. If it was running rich, it should be throwing some codes saying O2's are rich. Bad plugs & wires could very well lower mpg. Bad spark can mean not as good as explosion which would mean less power, so more gas is required for the same amount of work.
