Title: Spark plugs
Post by: Ccemn1 on September 30, 2017, 04:53:36 PM
At the risk of sounding like a complete bonehead, what size socket do I use on the spark plugs on the V6 Fiero 2.8?

isn't there spark plug socket made with the rubber inside to hold the plug  when pulled out ? i think its 5/8' . I could be wrong about the size .
but some other brand of plugs will fit in but the size is 13/16' just take couple sockets and try which will fit

Through researching it on here, and judging by the lack of maintenance done on this vehicle, I think the pits around the plugs are filled with Gunk, not allowing me to get the socket on.
 I tried every socket in my toolbox and couldn't figure out which one would fit.

Thank you.
Today I'll be working with a long skinny screwdriver and compressed air.
