plug wire on lq1

[Jake91]

i know i can change them without removing stuff, but with it all there i cant tell how they are routed. can someone give me some insight on this before i tear into it ?

for a 94 LQ1, this is how they should be routed.

the fronts are cake.. the rears are kind of a pain.. Rock the motor forward (remove dog bone, ratchet motor forward... OR rock car and on the forward push mash park brake) the the rears will slide out. The rears run under the front cam tower... Pain in the ass. if your replacing them do what i did and save the headache, Cut the wire and pull it out. then i ran them over the front cam carrior. Not as pretty but easy to check/change and in stall.

Mine go over the top of the cam carrier under a small cover between the timing belt inspection cover and valve cover.

The other way I used to do mine was park it facing nose down hill on a small incline (some driveways work wonders for this) and undo the dogbone. The weight of the car will rotate the engine forward for you, but have someone in the car on the brakes before you undo the dogbone so you don't lose a finger as the engine rotates.

got everything installed today. damn that was easy. to get he wires routed the factory way i cut off the old ones at the rear tape the new ones to them and pull them through. rear plugs were no problem just got a swivle end for the ratched and took them out no rocking the motor involved. thanks for the input. also i dont know how my car was running before. the plugs were corroded, hardly a electrode left, gapped to almost .070:

I've been wanting to get a couple of those locking extensions that have the little deal at the end that won't let a socket go until you push the little doohickey for things like this.
