    Do you torque your spark plugs ??

    well i know from first hand expirience that #2 is true. I would do #3 or if u like anit seize just tighten them down really good. The whole point of anti seize is so they come out again, so tighten them down good, theyll come out no prob.

    NGK Plugs- whats the deal here??

    why, when i put the plug in, they have a copper top, but when i take them out, the copper top is missing. I noticed this yesterday. 7 of the plugs, that i put in exactly a year ago, were missing the copper top. The one plug that blew and i replaced it 3 months ago, still had the copper top on...

    Coolant in #4 Plug Hole

    hmm.. i just wonder why everything "looks dry", but than in a hole covered by a COP, there all the coolant sits. And Randy, where is this hose you speak of? Hopefully thats it, but why would it leak? cracked or not connected properly?

    Do you torque your spark plugs ??

    i dont know how they would strip THAT easily man, i mean, just cause its aluminum dosent mean you can cut right into it. When the engine is stone cold, so is the metal. everyone thinks of aluminum in its state when its hot, but when it isnt its pretty tough. Now i agree to not overtighten, but...

    I am so stupid - fuel line & fuel filter

Just slide it in and like kT said, it will release the spring lock thats in there. I dont care who...

    Do you torque your spark plugs ??

    i just did mine today. I put anit-seize on them, and tightened the mofo's untill the socket wrench didnt turn any more. i used to torque them to "spec", untill I had one BLOW OUT! forget that, just tighten them down good so u dont have to dish out $200 every few months

    Coolant in #4 Plug Hole

    Changed my plugs today, gapped them at .38 (gettin ready for nitrous), but i had a problem with the #4 Plug. As soon as i pulled it there was coolant ALL over the COP and plug itself. I read all the search threads on coolant and plugs, and the closest i got was svttech saying "coolant in the #4...

    How do you jack up the rear of your car?

    jacking the rear up is the easiest. i use that little "dogbone" plate that sits infront of the diff. my jack and bar is just long enough to reach it perfectly.

    Burning smell at WOT?
