The funny part is, he's so thrilled that he can change a sparkplug that he must post it here! It seems to take about two hours to change the plugs on a Navigator.The book said to change them at 100 000 miles, so we did, but they looked fine. Should have waited for the check engine light to come on. The engine is so buried that you can't even see it, and you have to take stuff off to get at other stuff. Casady Ah for the days..... I had a Plymouth Belvedere with a slant six. I could get in the engine compartment and actually stand on the floor, in front of the front steering components! I took the engine out of it in one evening. After rebuilding it put it back in in an evening. |

What was funny was seeing the hood leaning against the garage door. Big. --Vic |
