Hi @ all

I've a problem

My car starts normally but after some seconds, maybe 3 or 5 seconds, it stalls and is out!

I've checked the fuel filter already, and I can blow threw very easy, so I reconnected it.


Now I want to check the spark plugs! One year ago there were installd new ones, but the car stood a year and now I want to check them if they are OK!

Now my question! How can I get out the spark plugs? I don't know how

I've uploaded a picture where you can see what I mean, don't watch the circle it's unimportant ;)

I would be grateful if somebody can help me step by step how to take off the spark plugs!

Or if anybody has an other idea what the problem could be, that my car doesn't want to run longer than 5 seconds, please tell me :D

okay I've plugged off the mass air flow sensor, and the car runs nearly perfect.

but at 2000RPM or more the engine sounds noisy, such a ping or ring tone (i don't know the exact english word)

what does this mean?? why does the engine such funny sounds at higher RPMs??

help me please ;)
