DIY Sparkplug replacement
Anyone have any knowledge on changing the spark plug for a Do-It-Yourselfer? I was told it's a 4 hour job?? Is that really possible? Has anyone ever done their own and if so can you provide step by step instructions? Thanks

it is a DIY job, but it takes time. I think 2 h will do it. It is realively simple, but need spark plug pliers optherwise you are going to ruin the cables.
Take off the airfilter
remove the cables
take off the ignoition coils
take out the spark plug
replace them
Don't forget you need 16 plugs
