Could buy your new plugs to make sure your size is correct. Then you might have to go and get a deep socket of that size and the extension will just fit(but not click)into the top of the socket if you hold it right.Or grind down the fat socket!

The spark plugs are located at the top of the engine block. Two have Plug Wires going to them the the other two have the coil already attached to it. These can be remove with a 10mm socket.

Can you show me a picture of the location of the spark plugs for a 1999 Mazda Protege?

close man, but always stay factory plugs and wires if you don't want problems. they are 10mm type clamps, more of coil type plugs. the plugs are a 5/8 deep socket to remove. one at a time COMPLETE, if you mix the order up, you will have firing problems(For clarification of above, NGK platinum plugs ARE the factory plug for the Mazda Protege. You do not need to go to a dealer for 'factory' plugs.)AnswerMake sure the car is cold before working removing the plugs.The Protege has an Aluminum engine and a Mazda mechanic friend of mine said that most do it yourselfer's will change the plugs when the engine is hot. Removing the plugs when hot will strip the thread that the spark plug goes into.You will need a 2" plug socket & a 10 mm socket to do this.The 1999 DX 1.6L has all 4 of it's plugs in a row. [1] [2] [3] [4]The 1 & 4 wires will pop right off to expose the plugs about 2" down. You will need the 10 mm to remove the clamps on 2 & 3 then the wires will literally slip right off.I've found that it works best removing them sequencial.That same mechanic friend also said to stick with NGK plugs all the fancy gold/platinium spilt tip crap is for the birds for Mazda's anyway. Also, before you put the new plugs in, spray lightly with a coat of WD40. Helps keep lubricated until the next time to change.I've changed them on my '99 DX about 5x's (173000 miles)Good Luck.
