DrWebster I want to thank you for this excellent write up, I changed my plugs yesterday following your instructions and everything was a breeze. Idk why I was being such a pussy about it. Took me at most 30mins, spark plugs were perfectly gap and I torqued them to 9lbs, after the install my idle was so smooth man, it seriously felt like the engine was off
Just one question, what type of torque wrench do you have? I have the old school needle one, are the click ones more accurate?

Once again, Thanks!

I have a Husky click-style torque wrench. Some swear by the "beam" (needle) style, saying they're more accurate, but those won't prevent you from overtorquing if you aren't looking at the gauge.

good Point, thanks chiming in

Gotta Feel it man.... use the force. I use a beam type torque wrench, it was like $15 at sears. But honestly I think you could do it with out it, seat the plugs hand tighten, turn with ratchet till slightly tighter then 1/4 turn and your done
