    The rear bank of spark plugs isnt't gonna be easy either especially for someone who doesnt have the tools. But i'd agree headers would be the hardest outta everything

    so about an hour. not too bad. i suppose we could try to knock some of this stuff out at where i'm at.

    spark plugs and wires and maybe fuel filter would be a one day thing (assuming it would be in the after noon on a weekday or something)

    was the oil filter an accident? cuz those only get replaced during an oil change lol

    coolant flush would be easy too. since the grass is so damn dead we could park in the grass and do it. wont have to worry about a brown spot lol

    I did most of it myself at a friends house. I just bought lim gaskets and coolant elbows, and still have the fuel filter and t stat to put in. After that I would need the coolant flush.

    Just added it was I found mine was never replaced and still the stock plastic one. I'm not exactly sure as of now. I need to do more research to figure out how hard it is.

    Id offer to help you get all of it in, but im probably 4.5 hours in. Like Farns said, there used to be a time when people would do this for free just to encourage people to get into the sport

    michigan people have better stuff to do, like finding jobs or avoiding robbery.
