93 Q45 spark plugs

[andbeyond]

I know you've been asked this way to often probably, but I'm just lookingfor a DIY on replacing spark plugs on a 93 Q45.

I'v been searching, found a lot of good info, but I'm new to the site

Could someone please tell me where to find a good step by step on replacing the plugs.

Also are NGK PFR5G-11 the ones I need to use.

Thanks

someone said i should be able to tell by the looks if the spark plug is burning rich or something it would be black.. I have pics of them.. But is there a way to really tell? Ohand BTW: The plugs i took outta there are NGK PFR5B but i replaced with NGK PFR6B-11 is that ok

they all look nasty! so hows it feel with new sparkers?

If you've lined them up left side / right side it looks like you've allso got a leaking valve cover gasket.

All the plugs look to be pretty sooty (fouled?) on the tips so it looks like you're running very rich. What kind of gas mileage were you getting before the plug change? Compare that to your first tank with the new plugs. If you mpg isn't up in the 14-16 range you have other engine tuning issues. Good luck.
