i put my plug wires on today the driver side was cake but the passenger side was a real pain,had to take the alternator off and take the power steering pump loose,then i got the firing order all messed up on the drivers side but fixed it anyone else had this problem?

 

Doing anything on the passenger side is a PITA although having headers does help with the plugs and wires.

 

What, a problem with it being a pain in the ***? Yea that's pretty common. What part of TN are you in?

BTW took me about five hours to do a plug and wire swap on mine, if you take out time for my breaks

Remove the AC, and put on Hooker LTs and your plug changin problems are solved.

 

You live in this humid *** state and have no AC?! Its bad enough living here, but take away the A/C and its alot like hell.....

 

Hell, I like that.
It is not my daily driver.
I have a beater pontiac with AC.
I don,t mind heat too much, roll down the winders take out the Ttops and its all good.
My garage was a sauna for the last 2 months while I was doing the tranny and LTs and suspension installs.
Puddles o sweat underneath the car.

 

When I did plugs and wires, I got the wires mixed up too.

The drivers side is 1735 on the opti, so naturally I assumed (naturally, this was my problem) that the passenger side would in fact go 2846... when it is 2864... car did NOT run well.
