Tool for replacing rear sparkplugs on Solara V6
Posted: Thu Mar 22, 2007 7:16 pm
I have noticed several posts depicting bad experiences in replacing the rear plugs in a Solara V6. Well this job can be made very easy with the use of a specialty 3/8 extension that is made to firmly hold on to the (plug)socket. This extension is 7.5 " long and can be easily placed over the spark plug and then reach in and place 3/8 drive ratchet onto the extension. No components have to be removed except the plug wires. Make sure the plug socket is in good shape so as to firmly hold on to the plug while extracting and replacing.
The extension is made by Sidewinder Products Corporation - it's number is 71011. Their website is http://sidewinderproducts.com/_wsn/page3.html. I don't recall where I purchased mine - check with the manufacturer.
