How long does it take one jarhead to swap out 6 spark plugs?
Oh, I'd say a good 3.5 hours. Took my time, walked away when I got frustrated, smoked 2 cartons of smokes (not really, but alot), then wrapped up.
Tony, you were right. My arms look like your's did on Saturday. I'm thinking about dumping the AC - thing doesn't work, and it just gets in the way. And, for some reason, #5 was much harder than doing #6 (which actually took NO effort). And for the peanut gallery, I know that was slow, so shaddap.
I'll see you tomorrow, and will bring your jackstands.
Did anyone happen to find an extra big-*** flat head screwdriver in their toolbox from Saturday?

Good to hear you're spending some quality bonding time with your car. You learn a lot
about your car and yourself...and now you know how to do it better next time.
You want to caravan up to Induktion tomorrow? You gotta head past my place anyways.

Sure. How long does it take for you to get to the Beltway?
I guess I can call you when I get to the 95S split, then just putz along until you jump on the road.

Oye - that doesn't sound like fun at all.
The left side (123) was fairly painless. It was the right side (456) that was awkward to get "decent" access to the plugs. The AC unit was the big speedbump to work around.
