I can't figure out how to get to the far plug on the passenger side towards the very front of the car on a 1990? It is blocked, is there a special tool I need or do I need to remove other parts to get to this?
Any sort of help would GREATLY be appreciated!

You'll have to forgive me but are you talking about the #2 spark plug? The one that is all the way towards the nose of the motor? Or the #8 that is in the back of the motor? Either way, you don't need any special tool to do the job, however it gets a little tricky. I have found that if you can get the car up on a lift this will alow you to get to the plugs from underneath.

Hope you have antiseptic and bandages in your tool box. Say a hail Mary after the foul language also....:thud:

LMAO! That was the humor I needed with this job! How true you are, just toss in some Advil!
