  • 2000 Firebird tune up

    2000 V6 Firebird auto
    Alrighty. my car only has 60k on the clock, but from the recent mis-fires its been having i think i should do the 100k tune up NOW.
    first Q: how do I remove the spark plug wires? they have a little metal insulator around the boot, do i pull on that or do i pull on the boot?
    second Q: which plugs/wires should i go with? i was thinking using NGK plugs since they work well on my daily driver.

    any and all info/help is appreciated!

    if 3800's are any hard as LS1's be ready for some cursing and bruised knuckles...not to mention a few hours.

    the metal insulators must be removed before pulling the wire.

    NGKTR55's are fine and probably most popular.

    go there and do a search...plenty of good material.

      LOL
      they wont be nearly as hard as doing it on an LS1 TA. i can touch all 6 with my hands, and i can get my socket in there without too much gumby-action.

      do the metal insulators just pull off? i dont want to pull too hard and break somtin, LOL

      thanks for the Link BTW

        that reminds me...I believe 2000+ V6 f-bods got tubular exhaust manifolds. So if that's any indication, it should be easier.
