Hi
How do you replace passenger side front spark plug behind air con on a 2000 northface?
Replaced all plugs on previous 97 XLT, not easy but did them.
Bought Northface and service bits from ebay and just working through the car. Replaced all brakes, front hubs, front roll bar links, oils, belt, air filter, wiper blades, tyres, alloys refurbd, got sidesteps and towbar still to fit, full sized spare tyre sourced, waiting for proper fuel filter - its smaller than XLT unit duh!
Replaced 5 of the plugs and leads but left with last one behind air con unit. They have obviously been in there for a while as rusty and electrodes well worn.
Replaced them through a mix of wheel arch access and from above. Got a magnetic flex joint plug socked, 3/8 drive.
I figure I can touch plug with tip of my finger but thats about it. Fixed air con pipery obscures from above and below. Almost as if only way to do it is to remove aircon unit/pipes!!!!
Any tips on how to do this? what exact tools used and from above or below?
Thanks in advance.
PS anyone got a load area cover in the cream or a set of the ford mudflaps?
