Im changing the plugs on my 2000 z28. I did the drivers side no problem but cant even get my hand in to the passenger side plugs. Is there a trick to this I'm missing or is it impossible for someone without a huge toolbox to accomplish?

Search this forum. There's tons of info on plug changes already posted.

I remove the air pipe on the passenger side and can get them all from the top. You can also slide the coil pack up. Everyone has their own technique, first time is a bear. www.installuniversity.com has a writeup w/pics. While you're cussing just remember how much $ a dealer/shop wants to charge - and how much money you're saving.

"I" like to remove the coil pack assembly 1st....then remove the EGR tube to get a little room. Use a short extension and be patient. Oh and a pair of gloves and long sleeve T-shirt will save some skin. If you drop a plug, it might not be a bad idea to just replace it instead of putting it back together only to have a misfire......just handle them like eggs LOL
