Alright! Those 454 AC car owners out there- there is hope doing plugs.
I've discovered a few secrets working the past 3 days...
I'll share my thoughts of course!
For one, the drivers back 2 plugs are easily accessed from below the car.
The two front driver's are fairly easy to get out from the above, typical over-the-fender way.
The 2 back passenger side: they are hard to get. Use small rachett and only a 1-1/2 extention. Anything longer and your the rachett's handle with hit against the AC duct. The far back one i had a hard time breaking it loose, so i used a 5/8 plug socket and a closed end wrench around the end of that plug socket.
Also, I bought and used an extra long Sears Craftsman 5/8 socket- it didn't have the ability to use a wrench on it like I just mentioned, though. It didn't have the rubber seal to grip the plugs but go slowly and it works well.
And the front passenger plug is done- by taking the wheel off!
I'm doing a brake job currently (leaking caliper) and I noticed there is a A-arm flap and hole shape in the fiberglass body. Used a swivel socket on the plug with extra long extention (10"?) It's barely corked but a slight adjustment is needed to get it on square so a swivel works well.
Now, I have to change the wires, which is another story!
