Post by Merrillspontiac »

Are there any tricks to getting at the rear spark plugs for my 91 3800 powered regal?

Is there any need for any tricks, or am I spoiled by the underhood room of mine?

I do know that if there is a Strut Tower Bar, usually it is easier for everything to take that off.

I had a 1991 Regal GS and this tool made life easy for me.

A friend of mine had an '89 Cutlass Supreme (sibling to the Regal) and he said the prescribed method for accessing the rear bank of plugs was to loosen the motor mounts and raise the engine a few inches.
