What code are you getting? Â*I just went through some troubleshooting on my 96 and the P0300 misfire code was pretty misleading considering the real problem turned out to be loose EVAP purge lines and charcoal canister falling apart inside. But I did the plug wires anyway and that took almost 8 hours!

damn 8 hours! that sucks! mine took me and kasey (and his dad at times) about 2 hours or so, the boots were the only real pain to get off everything else was easy... and the code i was getting was the misfire code (pretty sure its P0300) im gonna go to KFC after i get done this work i have to do for class and record the code then come back here and figure out what it is, ill let you know...

hey man i dont know how the hell you managed to break that plug, AND my old plug that I gave you to put in... you're lucky you broke it clean off at the ceramic and the nut was still there so i could get it out...

yea idk how i managed to do that either, 2x!

If you have a socket that is slightly worn or a cheap brand, it's easy to crack spark plugs with a bad socket. I broke 2 one time before I stopped and looked at the socket and realized it was slightly worn and allowing it to twist on the plug and put force on the ceramic.
