How do you pull of the spark plug wires from 2003 neon?

Answer 1

I used to have a 2003 Dodge Neon. What you do is, first wear some gloves so you're hand/s won't get soar quickly. There are four spark plug cables on the top of the engine. Grab one at the,Warning, base only! Do not pull at the cable you can damage it. It can be extremely hard to pull off, at the base of the cable only, pull upward. PULL upward, rest if you have to. Then again, pull upward. You might have to pull and rest, pull and rest. It can be stuck and will require several attempts to remove the cable. Unfortunately, the reason it can be difficult to remove the spark plug cable is that the plug is long about 7 inches (longer than others) once you do remove the cable you will be looking at another problem. The spark plugs are located deep in a well in the engine (unusual), you'll need a ratch and spark plug socket with a 10 inch or so extension. Once you loosen the spark plug you'll need a tool to insert into the well and remove the spark plug. A special tool, to grab the loose plug and move it upward out of the well. Your fingers hands won't fit in the well. Once the spark plug is removed, you can gap it. Now you'll need a way to insert the spark plug, not so easy! You'll need a tool to lower the spark plug in the well and do the initial insert and tighten, before you can use the ratch (extension) and socket. I had bought a 2003 Dodge Neon spark (tune up)plug kit, includes all the tools and accessories to do the job. Even the special tools. I don't have the car anymore so I'm selling the tool on http://auctions.Yahoo.com/. Check it out or go to your local Auto store they may have the kit? Good Luck!
