My seasonal job with the state has ended once again, and i am only gonna be puttin in probably only 20 hrs a week at my other job (as opposed to 45 at the park and 20 at dicks), so i'll have much more time to be here, see you bastards on the board :biggrin:

Your not alone. :banghead:

But yeah, I remember you, I didn't post much back then though.

yeah kaotic is cool and i think he is a mod too...are u???

Yeah, he's a mod.

yup, an action set in motion a long time ago.. finally happened a few months ago.

hahaha... come try mine then....

Try my Monte Carlo's.. seriously I have no IDEA how im going to reach the spark plugs on the other side because it sits sideways.. so the other 3 are right next to the wall and god.. its bad. I'll take a pic so you guys can see wtf im talking about.

hahaha yeah have fun... i watched my mechanic friend put plugs in a monte ss....... a lot of bloodshed and time later he finished....

yeah, i ripped a chunk of skin off my fingers on my left hand gettin at one of the plugs.. not to mention i have only a 12" plug extension.. which is fine and dandy for the farther away plugs.. but i had a hell of a time with the one tucked away behind my alternator.. lol.. glad i changed em tho.. they were gettin bad.. even snapped one in half taking it out.. didnt know it was even possible..

Rally here's what you need to do... http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8883

And why/for what are you a mod again??

just to give you a hard time... lol

that's nothing, the entire motor has to be pulled to access the plugs on the back side of my aurora.

Good thing 3rd gens have sooooo much room to play with. But with the headers on, some of the plugs are impossible to reach with regular tools. I made the mistake of tighting the headers bolts after the motor ran for a awhile... lets just saw i gots some weird tattoo's for free.

Alright, I hope thats an actual helpful link there, Kasey because its blocked from these computers at school, so means I have to check it out at home.

Also I miss my 3rd gen's engine space.. except trying to reach the spark plugs on the passenger side.. for some odd reason they decided to shove everything on that side.

yep it is, hope it helps

Rally, do you have a/c? If so, thats why it's so hard. That big ass a/c box pretty blocks off plug 6 and 8 on the V8's. I grabbed a slegdehammer and fixed that problem.

his problem is wrong wheel drive = sideways engine = half of his plugs against the firewall

I was referring to his 3rd gen. I watched my pops changed some the intake manifold gasket on a ford winstar. Good thing he didn't have to change the plugs, because that looked impossible without taking the motor out.

I'll take some pics and show you tomorrow if you want to know what im talking about, I honestly dont know what the hell they were thinking.. :disappoin

I guess they were making it so people couldn't do it themselves, forcing them to bring to the dealer, so they can get more of your money.

nah... they just dont put workability on the top of their design list.... they go more for how the car will function.... they could give a shit less how many pints of blood you are going to be going through trying to fix something later on....

LOL!! Working on cars sounds like a "bloodsport". Good movie btw.

Somtimes it is.... from working on my car to working construction I have to be going through like my 50th layer of skin on my hands......

haha its tru bro they dont care about yoru hands only ur $$$$

I remember when i busted my knuckle on the ac compressor. The belt was loose, so i was tighten the bolt with ratchet that happened to be one size off. I thought it was gripped really good, so i put full strength into it. Shit slipped and my knuckle was leaking blood out it. Never did that before. Still have the damn scar. It fun wreching though, nonetheless. Ever get battery acid corrode (when it's all cruddy and dried) in your eye? That shit really burns man, good thing I did not get a lot of it in there, would have been in the hospital.

lol that sucks!! that would hurt like a bitch. lol i should have taking a pic of my hands when i was done with my engine swap. they had so many cuts and stuff. and one of my finger nails was all busted in half with dried blod up under nail. it took 4 months for it to grow out. just like 2 days ago i cut the last of the nail with dried blood off. now theres like a permanent lump in my pinky where it got smashed. btw link i have ruined 2 pais of clothes with battery acid. it dosnt effect the clothes till they go into the wash. they came out and i was like ummmm wtf mate?

Haha cool.. I knew I wasnt the only one with injuries from working on the car.

Well I ripped off the tip of my thumb on my right hand a few hours ago messing around with a jack.

what did you do, hammer it out from under the car? :loser:

Haha that sucks.

Explain.

I had to take the jack stands off and I needed to put the weight on the jack but I didn't have the jack handle around, but had a chisel, it was a little too big for the opening but I wedged it ,so I went to jack it twice and on the second one the chisel came flying out and my thumb contacted something sharp cause the tip came right off. I nearly passed out, I grabbed a rag and laid down right there for like 45 minutes and no Kasey, a hammer was not involved, I'm not that dumb :loser:

I have gotten away injury free so far with my project. Just some minor scrapes.
Helps having the motor out of the bay. :icon16:

LMAO, I know this shouldn't be funny..laughing with ya buddy :grinno:

Hey, don't feel bad, laugh it up. I could have easily traded my thumb tip for a 2 sec walk back in the garage, yet again more proof why you should always use the exact tool for the job.

Thinking about it, one of the worse things I have done to myself working on a car was moving a jackstand.
I didn't realize the way I was holding it, and the jackstand was extended. No weight on it though.
I lowered the stand part....forgetting that my hand was there. Nailed me right in between my thumb and pointer finger in that little flap of skin. That hurt. Stopped bleeding after a couple hours.

Alright now I got pictures.. first is of my Camaro.. and just look at how everything is on the passenger side! Its freaking hard to get into..

Now there is something I can move out of the way because the asshole who had it before me, bought a part from the junkyard and he weilded it on to the part that you're suppost to use SCREWS for. So I used something else to hold it in together..

http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8732/dscf001611fg.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

The part is what is the pointer is pointing to, its secure there but I can pull it out if I want to.

Now here's a picture of my Monte's engine, the pic is blurry but you get the idea, Link.

No space but thanks to the link that Kasey posted, I can be able to do it.

oh you have a 3.4?

I'm sorry :lol2:

Damn, the bay area on the Monte is tight. They threw all the shit on the passenger side in the 3rd gens., but i got rid of most of the stuff. A/C and smog stuff, all gone. Makes life way easier.

oh you have a 3.4?

I'm sorry :lol2:

Yeah I know :(

Oh well..

Also Link what was all the smog stuff? I want to remove that kind of crap too if it will clear engine stuff. Funny thing is that my mom doesnt care what I do to my Camaro, but she wont let me even put exhaust on the Monte, making it not that fun to drive which is really the main reason why I want my Camaro back.
