Just changed my plugs
Just changed my spark plugs tonight on my '02 TJ. I must say that this was
the easiest spark plug change I have ever done.
I've changed plugs on quite a few vehicles over the years, including many
Chevy Vans (yuk, what a job) and the TJ with the new coil rail ignition
system and lots of room in the engine compartment, really makes the job
easy.

Re: Just changed my plugs
I just hate the plug that is under the AC compressor on mine. You would
think that they would have made the compressor bracket just 1 lousy inch
higher.....but oh no....that might make it easy........

Re: Just changed my plugs
I had no problem with mine. On the '02, 6-cylinder it's easy to get to even
with air conditioning.

Re: Just changed my plugs
You use a vacuum hose to install the plug.

Re: Just changed my plugs
Yup, not to brag about the size of my hands, but. ;-) And usually
for me, at least, the wobble socket won't hold the correct angle to
chance cross threading, or scrapping dirt into the cylinder.
