turbospec29 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I would like to do a couple things to my car (04 gtp) before the weekend (new plugs and wires & new fuel filter). For whatever reason I don't want to take on the back bank of plugs by myself or at all if I can find someone who has done it before to do it. Don't have a garage to work in either. I guess alldata calls for the job to take like 1.4 hours and all the local shops want like 100 bucks to do it. I've heard people say it can easily be done in half an hour. I'll do it myself if I have to, but thought I'd ask around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benner Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Gearheadz automotive has damn good prices. I'd get hold of them. They're sponsors on here as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 the rear plugs are real easy if you take off the front wishbone mounts and pull the engine forward... dont worry it will not it the radiator.. X2 for calling up rob at gearheadz if you dont want to do the work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I can get it takin care of for you. we do random small stuff all the time, but i under stand it's a small job, but my schedule is booked. if you want to leave it with me for a day, i can get it in and out and taking care of(just working it through randomly). you would be looking at $75 before taxs. best bet is to call in and speak with dana to setup a appointment to drop it off. thanks.

Snowflake Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 It's really not that hard to get to the back 3. I change my plugs in about 30-40 minutes without taking off the motor mounts. A swivel and some extensions work magic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 pm'd Didn't really expect a PM. Truthfully, thanks for the message, but if Rob can get you plugs, wires, and a fuel filter for $75 installed, you'll never beat that deal.

nurkvinny Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Can't leave my car at his place all day. Ahh, ok. Well, since this is the Tech Section... This link shows the steps for the fuel filter and it takes no special tools - http://www.pfyc.com/supportfiles/gasfilter/ . For the plugs and wires, once the front dog bone mounts are undone, you can use a small ratchet strap (or just about any rope/tether) to hold the engine towards the front of the car while getting the back plugs and wires.
