 I've never owned a van before. I open up the hood
look around and wonder how I'm ever going to change
the back three spark plugs?? lol! Is there something I'm missing here
or am I putting it up on a hoist and seeing if I can get them from
underneath?

Thanks for any helpful tips you can pass my way cause I'll be darned
if I got to take it to the dealer to change the feakin plugs.

 I've got a 2000 Montana. The only way to change the back three plugs
is from underneath. I didn't want to do it and the only repair shop
that would do it quickly was the dealer. He charged $300 labor and
$53.28 parts.

 Take off the drivers side "wish bone" hook a ratchet strap in the black
steel hole pull 1 bolt in the other one and pull the engine forward and grow
an extra elbow and it can be done

I find its best/safer to replace them every 80k.


Heres how its done when you follow the manual:
-------------------­-----
* Allow the engine to cool before removing the spark plugs.
Attempting to remove spark plugs from a hot engine can cause the spark
plugs to seize. This can damage the cylinder head threads.
* Clean the spark plug recess area before removing the spark plug.
Failure to do so can result in engine damage due to dirt or foreign
material entering the cylinder head, or in contamination of the cylinder
head threads. Contaminated threads may prevent proper seating of the new
spark plug.
* Use only the spark plugs specified for use in the vehicle. Do not
install spark plugs that are either hotter or colder than those
specified for the vehicle. Installing spark plugs of another type can
severely damage the engine.

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. If you are replacing the engine right bank (rear) spark plugs,
perform the following steps:
1. Remove the windshield wiper module cover. Refer to Wiper Motor
Cover Replacement in Wipers/Washer System.
2. Rotate the engine for service access. Refer to Rotating the Engine
for Service Access in Engine Mechanical.
-------------------­-
The rest is obvious.

 I did the Braille method. I laid on the car and felt my way thru it. I
couldn't see a thing but could feel it.
