To change the spark plug, you must take out the old ones and put the new ones in using a wrench. It is easier to change them one at a time so that you do not mix up the order.

when do you change spark plugs
You rock the engine forward to gain access to the rear plugs.
To change the spark plugs on a 2000 Malibu, you need to get a spark plug socket with a u-joint in order to access the plugs on the firewall side of the engine. The plugs up front are easy to get at, and don't require anything special. Word of warning, if your Malibu has relitivley high mileage on it (80,000+) and it still has the factory plug wires, there is a good chance that they will break on you when you have to pry them off of the plugs, go ahead and replace the plug wires when you replace the plugs.
Remove the spark plug wires from your 2004 Chevy Malibu spark plugs. Remove the old spark plugs with a 5/8 deep well socket, by turning the socket to the left. Reverse the process to install the new spark plugs.
Change the plugs and plug wires at around 100,000 miles or earlier if you detect a miss or loss in performance of mileage.
It is a 3.1 Liter V6, so it has 6 spark plugs.
look in your owners manual but usually at 100,000 anymore.
Every 5 Years or 100,000 Miles whichever comes first.
wrong plugs or wrong gap!
