Hello all,
Doin' A tune up on my 98' Blazer, the #3 spark plug is completely blocked by the steering column shaft. Can't even get a plug socket on it!Can't get at it from on top or thru the wheel well .Is there a trick to moving the shaft outta' the way without unbolting the box or the entire column? Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks in advance
Paul

Gee, I don't remember having a particular hard time on one of these. Try just the socket and use an open end wrench to turn the end of the socket. You way also try one brand or another of sockets, many are not the same lenght.
