Does anyone have a hint as to how to get at the Spark Plugs on a 5.7
Mercruiser? It must be a good trick. Thanks in advance - David


you could pull the manifolds? ON my Ford 351 I used a 5/8" box end wrench
with a big offset.


this specialty SnapOn sparkplug socket makes limited access sparkplugs a lot
easier to remove or install.

The socket is also featured in SnapOn's TECH Magazine on page 21 of the Fall
2006 issue
