Changing the rear plugs is a bitch, that'* for sure. My dad commented on that when me and him did it about a year ago. The joys of FWD

Quit worrying about saving the plug wires and buy a new set. If the plugs last 100K, it'* prolly time for a new set of wires as well.

Ditto on the "twisting" to break them loose.

x2 on the new wires, especially since it seems that this is the first time that you've done this on your car. You'll be happy you did it.

The metal boots are a pain in the A$$ to get off. I had to use a pry bar to get mine off. I broke a few plugs, but i was changing them anyway'*.

But I have a few questions. I currently replaced my spark plugs in the front and the rear ones will simply not come off, I have used the force of god to try and get them off. The plug wires will not budge, they have some kind of metal sleeving around them and even when i push them down it will not budge. Want to know if anyone in here has any suggestions or tips for getting them off, I have a 93 bonnie se.
