UMM go to Sears or hardware store and get yourself a probe magnet. all it is, is a stick with a strong magnet they're thin and flexible.

If you haven't tried that definitely give it a shot before you start tearing things apart.

the ngk iridium ix come pre gap to the car you buy them for.if you try and rear gap them you might break the very small tip off.i run the ngk copper plugs and just change them about evry 3500 miles.and you can gap them all day long.

and good luck with your ca
