Re: spark plug installation

A little patience and anti seize go a long way. You will want to have access to undernieth the car and a spark plug wrench makes things much easier. One can be had on ebay for $5 to $10. Other than that it is pretty straight forward.

Re: spark plug installation

I concur, you definitely want some extension sockets along with the sparkplug socket...both can be had at WalMart for $5 to $10...or any autoparts store... Make sure the engine is cold so you don't burn your fingers on the block and heads...
