Tune Up

So after changing all the fluids transmission, rear diff and engine oil plus filter.


I want to do a tune up but the spark plugs look really hard to access.


Got any good ideas guys?

Also the last guys dad rebuilt this car everythings fairly new with a long block and my guages look different then other peoples 1990-92 speedo guages. Mine has white and blue lines and a big blue mark at 55mph whats this?

The speedo reads to 115mph.

Re: Tune Up

Spark plugs are a huge PITA to do, especially if you still have your smog pump and a/c in. I didnt do anything special when i changed mine, you just have to bend and twist your arm in crazy ways to get at them. Some i had to go under the car to get at. I dont know any better way. It sucks. Im pretty sure it took me like 2 hours to do mine lol. You should also change plug wires, cap, and rotor

Re: Tune Up

I would suggest u get ur arm full of grease lol, ur gonna have to push it is some tiny spaces, a long extension and a u-socket is ur best friend. And like 89rs305 said change ur plug wires rotor and cap.

Re: Tune Up

I'm able to change all my plugs from up top except the last one on passenger side rear(#8). That one has to be done underneath the car.

In 1990 they changed dash panels.
