Installed NGK Iridiums over the weekend. Used the "move the radiator out of the way and squeeze your big goofy hands in their" method. Some choice words, a little blood, and the new plugs were in.
The old plugs really weren't bad at all. 4,000 miles overdue for the swap - but I think I could have done another 4,000. Regardless, feels good to know the new ones are in. Also feels to to know the old ones were so clean - means the engine is running properly.
Thanks for the sarcasm. . . I mean help . . . guys.
