Changing plugs is easy on an A/C car - just put a jack under the subframe and raised the car a couple inches, enough that the suspension drops on the pass side. You then use a long extension and go straight through the gap between the inner fender and the upper control arm. I can do the pass side faster than the driver's side, where I have to deal with the power brake booster and brake lines in the way on #5 and 7.

The real reason to hate A/C on these cars is when the heater core goes bad and you have to take the entire car apart to replace it. (I need to do this on the SD)

I put the socket on the #7 plug by itself & use a box end wrench on the socket.....it's ALMOST as easy as doing #1...

The first time you do an A/C heater core on a secongen bird,it's always a bit of a surprise....who would have thought it could so much more complicated than a non A/C bird?

I usually spend the extra 15 minutes to pull the pass. side fender (with inner attached)

It makes the whole A/C heater core experience ALOT more enjoyable...
