This rarely happens, but yes it can. If you buy plugs with the wrong gap it will cause an insufficient burn or even misfiring. Normally, this seems as though it is just a coincidence. You should check for gas leaks when ever possible.

Would bad spark plugs make a 2000 Dodge Intrepid smell like gas?

Yes, bad spark plugs can cause a 2000 Dodge Intrepid to smell like gas. When spark plugs fail, they may not ignite the fuel-air mixture properly, leading to unburned fuel being expelled into the exhaust system. This can result in a strong gasoline odor, especially when the engine is running. Additionally, poor combustion can lead to increased fuel consumption and potential engine performance issues.

How do you change spark plugs on a 1988 Honda CRX?

Pull the wires out of the top of the motor, they have a long plastic boot on the end of the wire. Using a spark plug socket and a long extension you will be able to remove the spark plugs. Check the gap on your new plugs and I like to use a section of hose that fits on the top of the spark plug to to thread the plug back in. That way you reduce the chance of cross threading. Once you get them started you can tighten them down. I usually replace the wires when I replace the plugs. I would suggest replacing the plugs/wires one at a time to reduce the risk of mixing the wires up.
