Hey guys, i'm trying to change the sparkplugs in my 2000 V6 but the damn wires won't come off for the life of me... is there something i'm missing? I'm pulling and tugging on them with both hands and they won't come off... the whole car shakes when i tug on them, to the point i'm scared something will break if I pull any harder... is this normal? do i need a certain tool to disconnect the plug wires?

Thanks!

 

i tried to get them off on my car and never could

 

your car is 7 years old.. chances are if they are that tight, they were never changed... try bending while pulling it.. nothing is locking them in place

 

wiggle them around and try to crack em free. mines werent on that tight but i noticed sum corrosion on the top of the plug when i got it off so yea.

 

you are correct, they never have been changed...

so it sounds like it's some kind of a corrosion/sticking problem :hmm:

anything I should be carefull of that could break?

 

I gave up on the sparkplugs and went to GOODYEAR and they changed everything for me for 60 bucks

 

there is a tool you can buy that removes the plug wires easy for you...its called a spark plug wire remover haha

 

wires are easy but plugs are a bitch thats why i went with goodyear lol

 

you might break the boot on the end of the wire, no biggie really...but they will come off i promise
But see you can do it the lazy man way and start the engine, put it in gear, and drive it to a local shop and tell them to do it.. good luck lol

 

what kind of plugs and wires did every one get?
