I have a 96 Camaro RS V6 3800.
I'm trying to replace the plugs of this car. When I tried to find the plugs through the wires. They seem to be deeply buried somewhere. Could anyone show me how to access the spark plugs?
It may be as easy as a pie to you, but it's very tough to me :screwy:
Thanks.

Some say it's easier for them that way. Me personally have had f-bodies fall off stands WAY too many times so I try and stay out from underneath 'em as much as possible.

And you're still here! Looks like you are undying.
Anyway just man up and cut your hands trying to take out the spark plugs.

I haven't had that..umm problem with my Iroc. It's been on 4 jack stands for more than 3 weeks and hasn't budged. Is it more common with 4th gens???

The majority of times they came a tumbling down, it was someone elses car that wasn't supporteed in the best of ways. One of those "hey come over and check ithis out for me" so the sin was already commited when I got there.
I had one of mine come down once when a starter bolt broke in the block and the garage floor was not
exaclty level.
And I ahd my 68 on stands for 4 years without any problems.
